Frequent loose motions with mucus

2017-07-10 13:38:24
Since yesterday evening, my 3 year old boy is having loose motions. 14 times so far. Very little quantity though with Mucus. No complaints of stomach ache and no fever. A non-pediatric doctor prescribed Enteroquinol alongside OFM syrup, which I believe is banned for infants in India. Can I get some help here?
