Hi,
It seems from your description that your daughter is having infective diarrhea. If there are no signs of dehydration, then she can be treated at home.
Kindly give her the following:
1. Tablet containing Ofloxacin with Ornidazole.
2. Easily digestible semi-solid food.
3. Tender coconut and Oral Rehydration Solution.
Gradually, she should be able to overcome the same and be back to normal.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Ashakiran S,
General & Family Physician
