Stool more than 6 times
Hello Doctor,
Please help and advice.
My baby is approx 5 months and his weight is 6 kg.
From past 8 days he passes stool more than 6 times in a day.
Stool is watery with some seedy.
I have consulted to doctor.
He suggested enterogermina and toxim-o and said for diarrhea.
Is it symbol of diarrhea.
How much time it will take to recover.
And he suggested enterogermina 5 ml twice daily.
Toxim- 1ml twice daily.
Is it correct medicine .
Because there is no relief in my baby stool.
Baby is passing urine 6 or 7 times in a day.
He is on bf.
Please suggest.
