Hi
Your kid is having Gastroenteritis- which is most commonly viral in this age group. Always see your
Pediatrician before you start any medications.
Enflor sachet is a
probiotic which can be given for loose stools. It reduces the frequency and duration of loose stools.
You may give zinc once
diarrhea is controlled for a period of 2 weeks.
However neither zinc nor the probiotics will control
dehydration.
To prevent dehydration,
Give her plenty of fluids in the form of porridge (rice based), vegetable soups, plain water, ORS.
Give her plenty of curd that has probiotics naturally.
If she is on breast feeds, continue to feed.
Try to avoid formula/ cow`s milk/ fruit juices temporarily.
See to that she passes urine atleast adequately.
If at any time she becomes drowsy/ tired, if urine frequency is very less, she refuses to take orally, if she develops high grade
fever, if you see blood in the stools, do not hesitate to see your doctor immediately.
Hope my answer helps you.
Wish a speedy recovery for your kid.
