Hi, Thanks for using HCM.
Most common cause for loose motion is viral infection of GI system or due to food poisoning. Only symptomatic treatment is required to maintain hydration. As your doctor has already started on probiotic also, continue them, she may recover in a day or 2.
if her symptoms worsens, then may need to take antibiotic based on stool test reports.
Hope this helps you.
Regards
