What Medicines Can Cure Foul Smelling Loose Motions 3/4 Times A Day In A 1.5 Yo Baby?
my baby is 18month old. She is having loose motions 3-4 times a day from past 3 day with foul smell. My doc suggested me to give plenty of fluids so that her tummy gets back to normal. She does potty 1-2 hrs after having her meals. My doc didn't suggest any medicine till now, here they don't go for medicine until it's too severe. But since it's 3 continuous days could u pls suggests some medicine?

Hi
Most of the diarrhoeas in young children are due to viruses.And there is no specific treatment for them.Only thing required is plenty of fluids and probiotics may help.most of them are self limiting.That's why your doctor has not advised any treatment.
