Hi...Enterogermina is a probiotic and it can be given as 1 full vial as twice a day for 5 days. But if the diarrhea is already settling I don't think you need to give any probiotic now.

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.
