hi, thanks for your query.
It is ok to give this tablet for treatment of diarrhea, but it should be used 2-3 times daily only. ALso give ORS for prevention of dehydration.
.
if child is excessively thrusty, with dryness of eyes and oral mucosa, or urine frequency decrease then normal or not passing urine since 5-6 hr then u should consult doctor immediately as your child may have developed dehydration.
