Hi my 6month old baby is having loose motion with 5-6 stools each day for last three days. He has also developed fever now 103 f. Our doctor has prescribed econorm, zinconia and Crocin as SOS. For ORS he has suggested liquid ors. We have got intalyte-l. His fever has subsided after giving him Crocin. But we are worried if such a high fever demands other medication. Please help.
