Hi...Thank you for consulting in Health Care magic.
Clavam contains Amoxyillin Clavulenate and it usually causes diarrhoea. There is nothing to be alarmed if kid is active. Unless the kid's having low urine output or very dull or excessively sleepy or blood in motion or green bilious vomiting...you need not worry.
Probiotics which contain Saccharomyces boulaardii will be helpful. Kindly get back to your paediatrician.
Hope my answer was helpful for you. I am happy to help any time. Further clarifications and consultations on Health care magic are welcome. If you do not have any clarifications, you can close the discussion and rate the answer. Wish your kid good health.
