Treatment depends on level of dehydration. You are already giving medication. If the symptoms are worse child may require evaluation.

Greetings For a 5-year-old with mild diarrhea following vomiting, prioritizing hydration via Oral Rehydration Solutions (ORS) is critical to replace lost fluids. Administer small, frequent amounts of ORS after each loose stool to help manage dehydration. According to WHO guidelines, zinc supplementation can be used for 10-14 days to manage diarrhea, and a doctor can provide the correct amount. Continuing probiotics like Enterogermina can aid in stabilizing intestinal flora, though consulting a pediatrician is recommended. Maintain an age-appropriate, normal diet in small, frequent portions while avoiding overly sweet juices or sodas. Seek immediate medical attention if the child exhibits persistent vomiting, high fever, blood in the stool, or extreme lethargy.
