You didn't mention whether it is self-medication or you consulted a General Physician before starting this treatment. I would have recorded your BP and given you some IV Fluids if you are having watery diarrhoea. IV Antibiotics may also be considered. But none of these things can be done during self-medication.

It sounds like you're experiencing significant dehydration due to frequent, watery stools. Continue with oral rehydration salts (ORS) and probiotics like Vibact DS, which are helpful. As for taking the second dose of O2, a six-hour gap is generally acceptable, but make sure you're monitoring for any signs of improvement or worsening symptoms. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it would be advisable to consider additional treatments or evaluations.
For a more tailored treatment plan and better evaluation, feel free to consult me directly or reach out via WhatsApp at eight zero zero nine eight two one three three two.

O2 is not for controlling motion
The loose stools could be due to food related
