Hi
Thanks for your query.
Your child is having diarrhea which is mostly viral in nature and settles in few days.
Nutrilin b and darolac are both probiotics ,give either of two.
Most important is to maintain hydration.
Give oral rehydration solution sip by sip after each loose stool,give coconut water,lemonade,curd,buttermilk,boiled potato,banana.rice porridge so as to maintain hydration and nutrition.
Watch for features of dehydration like lethargy,decreased urine output.increased thirst and in case you find any get her evaluated by pediatrician for proper management.
Wishing your child good health.
God bless..

Hi,
Thank you for your query on Healthcare Magic.
I advise you to continue the medication as advised by your Pediatrician.
But try to maintain her hydration status by giving oral rehydration solutions like Pedialyte, coconut water, and lemon water in sip by sip to replace the losses in loose stools.
The mainstay of treatment in diarrhea is to maintain and monitor
Monitor her hydration.
Darolac is not required as it is a probiotic and your doctor already prescribed a probiotic in the form of Nutrolin-B.
Hope I have answered your query.
