Detailed Answer:
Hi again,
Thanks for writing back,
From the description you have provided, your symptoms point to gastroenteritis. I would suggest you to do the following:
Since you have not had any episodes of vomiting, but only loose stools, I would not advice you to start on antibiotics as of now.
- Take Cap. Pan- D once daily for 7 days half an hour before food.
- T. SPORLAC twice daily for 5 days, this is a probiotic which will help in the growth of good bacteria thereby ensuring better immunity.
- Keep yourself hydrated. Consume clean vegetables and fruits. Avoid anything spicy and oily.
- If at all you seem to have repeated bouts of loose stools that is more than 4-5 times a day, I would suggest you to take T. ENUF once or as an when needed. It should not go more than 3 tabs a day.
This should help you resolve your present symptoms.
I hope I have answered to your query,
Please feel free to discuss further or else kindly close the query and share your positive feedback.
Regards.
