Our daughter is 20 months old and has recently recovered from gastro-enteritis.However in the past 3-4 days she has been unwell due to vomitings.Right now the vomitings have stopped but she has loose motions.we have been giving her entrogermina and nexpro Jr.Is there any other medicine that we can give he to stop the loose motions?
HI Well come to HCM Most of the time GE is self limiting and does not need any treatment but of course hydration is matter, if still baby have some symptoms of Gastroenteritis then it is advisable to get done the stool examination, because possibility of protozoa infection may be likely, if this turned positive then need to be treated accordingly, in my opinion try to avoid unnecessary medicines, this could be harmful than helpful, hope this information helps.
