Diarrhoea in 1.5 year old infant

Question

Asked for Female, 28 Years

Infant is having diarrhoea since 5 days (green or yellow loose stools with white lumps). The paediatrician prescribed enterogermina for 3 days. Doesn't seem to have reduced. The child had PCV booster vaccine 3 days before diarrhoea started. The otherwise active and bubbly child is now slightly cranky and dull. What should I do?
