A. Loose motion are mostly infective which could be bacterial or viral in origin. the most important thing is fluid and electrolyte imbalasnce which can cause dehydration and further complications which should be managed properly. Initially probiotics can be given along with zinc supplement and ors solutiogn. Antibiotics should be given if required by the doctor only .

A. Hi You should continue with the medicines because one is a proper antibiotic that the doctor has advised you to go for another one is just to control the lose motions but would like to tell you that you It is not going to kill any good bacteria don’t worry about it it is one of the finest antibiotics that can be given to a child
