Suffering from dysentry

2023-03-25 04:49:08
Hi Doctor, My 4 years old is suffering from watery loose motion from 3 to 4 days. I gave him Z & D DS 20 suspension zinc dry powder -5 ml a day. Let me know what is the exact dose of this medication. Can we give this medication twice a day. I have given Enterogermina 5 ml twice a day. Still the loose motion is not stopped. Thanks

Dose of zinc is 5 ml one time a day for 14 days. Enterogermina u can give maximum 3 times a day Loose stool will become normal in 2-3 days, if loose stool persists more than 3 days, visit a doctor
Next Steps
Hydrate the child well with water, ORS and coconut water
