Hello,

No need of further antibiotic.

Prolong antibiotic use further increase loose stool by destroying gut flora, just continue to give probiotic, zinc, ORS (Oral Rehydration Solution), feeding, and also ensure urine passing adequately.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Sachin Kumar Agarwal
