What Causes Loose Stools In A 10 Month Old?
HI Dr. Experts, My 10 months old son is facing loose motion which is very watery. I had a discussion with his regular doctor and he recommended, Vizylac, Zinconia, ZIFI100 Syrups for baby. After 3 dossages of these Syrups in a span of 1.5 days, i dont find any improvement. Baby takes medicine and sleeps, whenever he wakes up imeediately passes a loose motion. Doctor also recommended an allergy to his stomach. Could you please advice what is wrong as i am a bit worried now.

Hi, the drugs that the doctor has prescribed you are correct, you also need to give ORS solution to the child. Loose stools may take upto 4 days to decrease but our main concern is that the child should not get dehydrated. I advice you to give adequate liquid diet and ORS to the child along with the prescribed drugs. Wishing your child early recovery. Take care.
