Hi,
Welcome to HCM forum,
If the diarrhea is persistent which means more than 3-4 large loose watery stools in a day, then you better show him to a pediatrician and I would suggest you to withhold any other medications till the infection subsides unless your pediatrician feels its safe to administer
Hope I answered you query adequately. Let me know if there is any further clarification you need. Take Care.
