What Causes Greenish Diarrhea Despite Giving Gramogyl To An Infant?
My 8.5months old baby girl is suffering from loose motion past 8days,sometime she passes 8-9stools a day. Medicine kareof nz was given to her but showed no result, I ve stopped giving her cows milk, she is having rice banana and mothers milk. Today I gave her gramogyl. What should I do to prevent loose motion. Her stool is greenish and granular
Understanding your concern. As per your query your baby have symptoms of greenish diarrhea despite giving Gramogyl which seems to be due to disturbance of electrolytic balance of body. Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like food intolerance , food allergy , bacterial or viral infection , parasitic infection or inflammatory bowel disease. Need not to worry. Take oral rehydrating solution as well. You should take small and frequent meals rather than large meals at a time. I would suggest you to consult gastroenterologist/ pediatrician for proper examination . Doctor may prescribe antibiotics like ornidazole , albendazole , omeprazole along with loperamide. You should eat light and non spicy , eat fresh fruits and vegetables and eat fruits like banana.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
