Pediatrician,  's  Response
Hi,

Thanks for your query. I presume that your baby is being breast-fed. Some children tend to develop loose motions following upper respiratory tract infection (parenteral diarrhoea). As he is already on Metnox (metronidazole & norfloxacin), infection is an unlikely cause of frequency of motion. I suggest that you get his stool examined and if it is normal then discuss with your doctor and consider discontinuing the medications. Your doctor may consider adding some medicine to recondition the intestinal flora such as lactobacillus.

Wishing your baby boy a speedy recovey.
