Loose stools

2018-12-29 21:54:03
My 1 year old baby ,was having loose motions since 3 days and had vomitings for 1 day. On consulting a pediatrician, he advised to take ORS frequent sips, Z and D drops for 14 days, Darolac sachets twice daily and ondem syrup2.5 ml twice daily for 2 days. No blood in stools and no fever.    Now the vomitings got suppressed but loose stools still not set. Can you give me some advice?

The treatment advised is appropriate, as your child seems to have Acute Gastroenteritis...You just need to wait 1-2days more for full recovery.
Next Steps
Continue giving ORS as replacement for the water loss due to loose motions.Monitor URINE output, activity...If there is lethargy or decreased URINE output, kindly go for a followup

As your child is suffering from acute gastroenteritis. The medication are very well adviced. It is good that there is no Vomitting now. Maintain hydration with ORS solution. Loose stool generally take some time to settle.
Next Steps
Do continue with the adviced treatment.
Health Tips
Watch out for danger signs like lethargy, poor oral acceptance, low urine output. In these cases immediately rush to a pediatrician.
