Welcome yo HCM
Enterogermina can be given safely . if it is in liquid form in small tube see expiry date and should be stored below 30deg. if the medicine is good shake well and administer whole 5ml twice daily for 3 days . no need to dilute .
if symptoms persist are increasing visit Peadiatrician.
Give ORS as often to prevent dehydration.
Thank you
