Hi ,
My son is 6 months old and having loose motion from last 4 days,
Previously everything was going smoothly while he was using Nan-Pro 1 (taking around 150ml) for 5-6 times a day also includes mothe feeding 3-4 times.
Now on Last Saturday it was switched with Nan-Pro 2 and after feeding around 2-3 times , he is suffering from loose motion 15-17 times on Tuesday after that we had consulted a doctor ,
And he suggested for few medicines (
Syp. Zincolite (2.5ml ,2 times )
Siloderm Cream (A thin layer after stooling(as the surface was red and I think it was paining )
Now redness is not there)
Now even after giving medicine he is suffering from loose motion , whenever a small qty of gas is coming it come with stool,
Yesterday in the start it was like little white and later it was yellow, sometimes stool coming normal and sometime like water mixed.

Greetings
15–17 loose stools daily, coinciding with a switch to Nan-Pro 2 formula, accompanied by gas and initial white coloring.Passing stool more than 10 times a day in an infant represents severe diarrhea and requires immediate, urgent evaluation by a pediatrician. Three distinct potential causes for this presentation include a secondary lactose intolerance triggered by the formula change, a formula protein allergy or intolerance, or an acute viral or bacterial gastroenteritis. Three distinct medical management strategies typically involve prioritizing rapid rehydration with a standard Oral Rehydration Solution (ORS), continuing frequent breastfeeding or formula feeds as directed to prevent severe dehydration, and introducing zinc supplements under direct medical guidance to reduce diarrhea severity. Watch carefully for critical red flags including sunken eyes, extreme lethargy, or fewer than six wet diapers in 24 hours, which require immediate emergency care.
