Pediatrician 's  Response
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.

I have reviewed your query and here is my advice. Diarrhea in infants take 7 days to stop. There is no medicine to stop it. Keep giving lots of liquids. Spaorolac sachet can be given twice a day. Give rice based food, Marie biscuits, banana, and pomegranate. You can add zinc containing syrup after consulting your doctor.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Best regards,
Dr. Prashant Mahajan
