Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query your baby have symptoms of loose motion and green colored stool which is due to poor digestion, poor absorption or rapid movement through the intestines and all this leads to watery diarrhea. Need not to worry. Drink plenty of fluids. You should take antibiotic such as oflox-oz along with rekool-d empty stomach one hour before meal. I would suggest you to take zinc supplements along with oral rehydrating solution. Your symptoms will resolve in 3-4 days. If your symptoms keeps on persisting visit pediatrician once and get it examined and start treatment accordingly. You can take Nitazoxanide twice daily to prevent diarrhea. You should maintain the hydration of the body by taking plenty of oral fluids.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
