What is the treatment for loose motions?
Patient: my one month 12 day baby was suffering from cold & cough.we went  2 a child splist who gave Azithral Jr,he became well but began to discharge watery stool 5-6 times a day.Again  we met the Ped & he gave Folcovit distab.but it didn't work, then he gave Oflomac but still it is not working,what should we do now? Doctor: Hi...Thank you for consulting in Health Care magic.What your kid is having is not a diarrhea and is only a gastro-colic reflux. It is quite common for babies of this age group t pass small amount of diarrhea or loose stools soon after feeds. This need not be treated as diarrhea and especially antibiotics are not indicated.Unless the kid's having low urine output or very dull or excessively sleepy or blood in motion or green bilious vomiting...you need not worry.Hope my answer was helpful for you.  I am happy to help any time. Further clarifications and consultations on Health care magic are welcome. If you do not have any clarifications, you can close the discussion and rate the answer. Wish your kid good health.Dr. Sumanth MBBS., DCH., DNB (Paed).,
