Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted the history about your daughter having controlled loose stools but still green color and understood your concerns.
THe cause of the green stool may be an intestinal infection and since Dolstom, Neopeptine and Zyncris are not helping you should do the following in such a situation:
Get the stool test for routine, microscopy, culture and sensitivity.
The blood tests.
Clinical evaluation by a Pediatrician and correlation with the reports.
A course of an antibiotic and metronidazole might help if the cause is bacterial diarrhea.
Also give probiotics, plenty of oral fluids and watch for the progress well.
I find this answer helpful
