Question: Hi doctor, my son(14 months old, 12.4kgs) was on antibiotic - Augmentum
Duo for 5 days (first 3 days 5ml thrice a day, last 2 days 5ml twice a day) as he had bad cough/
cold. In addition to this, gave
ascoril LS+ 3ml thrice a day. This did not reduce much, but loose motions started from last friday. Friday-around 6 small watery motions, saturday was better. Sunday was also ok. Antibiotic dose got over on sunday afternoon. Monday was bad, he passed more than 30 motions, watery, sometimes, yellowish while sticky with bad smell. Took him to doc and he asked to continue
Econorm and gave Zioral syrup(2.5 ml twice a day). Gave saggujava. No much help. On tuesday, gave
enterogermina, count came down to 15 motions. Giving
ORS also sip by sip. and gave mashed curd rice. yesterday, gave enterogermina, zioral and 1/2 tab andial also once. Count came down to 7. Was little happy to see signs of recovery. But, today he already passed 6 motions of which 3 were big and others watery ones. Again gave enterogermina + 1/2 andial + Zioral . giving little ORS. Please suggest what can be done more to stop this diarrea? Thanks for your patience for reading entire story. Kindly suggest remedy.
Thank you Doctor for prompy reply. I still breastfeed him during nights, can I continue doing that?
