Can Econorm Sachet Be Given To Cure Loose Motions In A Child?

My daughter is 1.5 years old and weighs 10.5kg. She has been vomiting for last 2 days. She has fever and loose motions today. I have been giving her Emeset syrup 5ml twice a day. Can you please suggest if I can give her Econorm sachet for loose motions?

Hi...You can give Econorm sachet - its a probiotic and it will do good in diarrhea. But rather than Econorm, even better option is Zinc supplements available as Zand D drops and I suggest you give 1ml once a day for 14 days and ORS as and when needed.
