you should give syrup metrogyl- p approximately 2 ml 3 times a day for atleast 5 days. also give zinc syrup (zi oral) 1ml twice a day for 14 days and bifilac/darolac satchet with milk twice a day for 5 days.increase breast feeding.if weight gain is continually poor or loose motion continue consult a pediatrician.
