Suggest Treatment For Diarrhea, Vomiting And Runny Nose While Teething
my 1 year old had two lots of diarrhoea in the night and were foul smelling. She also vomited twice during the night. At lunch time she passed a loose grey green poo. She has been miserable, runny nose and off food. She has always been a fussy eater and is teething.

Hi...Thank you for consulting in Health Care magic.
It seems your kid is having acute watery diarrhea. Unless the kid's having low urine output or very dull or excessively sleepy or blood in motion or green bilious vomiting...you need not worry.
Unless there is blood in the motion there is no need for antibiotics or cultures. Antibiotics might worsen if unnecessarily used causing antibiotic associated diarrhea. I suggest you use zinc supplements & ORS. For vomiting you can use Syrup Ondansetron 0.15mg/kg/dose thrice a day, 30minutes before feeds.
For your kid's cold, you can use Cetrizine syrup if needed on a once daily basis as suggested by your pediatrician.
Hope my answer was helpful for you. I am happy to help any time. Further clarifications and consultations on Health care magic are welcome. If you do not have any clarifications, you can close the discussion and rate the answer. Wish your kid good health.
