Hi,
Blood stained stools suggest dysentery and need antibiotic treatment. I usually give Cefixime for 5 days along with zinc and probiotics. Your doctor will guide you. Meanwhile, give frequent sips of fluids like ORS to avoid dehydration.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
