Detailed Answer:
Hello,

I have gone through your query and here is my advice.

As per your history, it may be viral diarrhea.

Please let me know does she has a fever, abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, blood in stool, weight loss, had taken any outside food?

To confirm diagnosis I would suggest you do complete hemogram, stool culture sensitivity, ultrasound abdomen after the treating physician's consultation.

Till then continue tab. Sestil AD 2 mg after each loose stool up to 16 mg per day. Do continue Darolac XXXXXXX Maintain proper hydration through intravenous fluids.

Do regular blood pressure monitoring. In case of not getting relief, she may require Colonoscopy after gastroenterologist's opinion.

Let me know I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Shyam Kale.
