Hello,
You need to make sure you do take plenty of oral rehydration solutions to help substitute all the water and electrolytes you are loosing with diarrhea.
If you have no fever and no blood with stools you may take Loperamide 2 mg, 2 tablets at the beginning and then one tablet after every diarrhea.
If you are not better with the above measures if you have high temperature or blood with stools, or you are any worse you will need to see your doctor.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
