Brief Answer:
Probiotic, ORS, and paracetamol can be given.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thank you for your query on Healthcare Magic.

Your 9 months old child seems having another episode of gastroenteritis mostly due to a virus or bacteria.

For fever, I can suggest paracetamol syrup in prescribed dose every 6th or 8th hourly depending on the presence of fever.

The mainstay of treatment in diarrhea is to maintain the hydration of the child.

I suggest sips of oral rehydration solutions (ORS) such as Pedialyte to prevent dehydration due to loss of water and electrolytes in loose stools.

Oral probiotic such as Nutrolin-B for 3 to 5 days and oral zinc supplementation for 2 weeks is advised in diarrhea in the prescribed doses.

Monitor the hydration status of the child by activity, urine output, skin turgor, and moisture of oral cavity.

And consult the pediatrician for physical examination to assess her hydration status and for prescription of medication.

Hope I have answered your query, if you have any clarification please let me know.

Regards.
