Pediatrician 's  Response
Hi
Your child is having gastroenteritis. You can give enterogermina orally once or twice daily and the most important is oral rehydrating solution which should be given sips by sips in equal amounts to the losses of water and electrolytes in loose stools. Oral rehydrating solution will correct,maintain and prevent dehydration in children with diarrhea and consult your Pediatrician for the assessment of your child and further need for any specific antibiotic therapy.
