Hi,
* The usual cause of pediatric diarrhoea is a viral infection or lactose intolerance.
* Oral rehydration salt is the gold standard therapy for diarrhoea at 6 months.
* So far as an antibiotic is concerned, it is not recommended without an in-person consultation.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
