Hello.
Your child seems to have Acute Gastroenteritis. You better watch out for fever and give Calpol only when the fever is raised. This condition will take 4 days to subside. You need to add Zn 20 Syp 5 ml 24 hrly.
Please do not force feed your child or he will be averse to the idea of the medication. Please take his condition in your stride. :) Hope this helps.
Next Steps
Add Zn 20 Syp
Health Tips
Watch for fever with a thermometer. > 100 degree Celsius
