Brief Answer:
Start hydrating youself by consuming ORS

Detailed Answer:
HI,
if diarrhea is that severe that start consuming ORS in 1 liter of water 200ml every hour with tab Providac twice a day and if still its not getting controlled tab loperamide should help.
No need of antibiotics as of now because you are not having any fever ,pain abdomen.
