Hi,

You should give her oral rehydration solution with every time she passes loose stool. Along with an anti-diarrheal drug, offer only soft and easily swallowed food. This should take 2 or 3 days to recover.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Salah Saad Shoman
