Pediatrician 's  Response
If you have finished your antibiotic course, the child's diarrhoea will stop on its own, without probiotics, if it was because of your medicines.
Just continue with a normal diet and plenty of fluids for your child. Probiotics should not be used without definite advise of a doctor. If your child's loose motions persist beyond a week or worsens, your doctor may advise Zinc syrup & probiotics.
