Hi,
The loose motions with mucus indicate underlying intestine infection. Though the taste of syrup is bitter, you have to manage it to cure the infection. Should discuss the need for zinc suspension with his doctor for faster recovery.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
