HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, here the given condition of diarrhea could be suggestive giardiasis and for that I would suggest to use the following given drugs Ornidazole with Ciprofloxacine the dose of these can be adjusted according to age and weight, the most important to take care for dehydration and fever, if the symptoms persist then stool needs to be sent for culture sensitivity test hope this information helps.
