Q.
My 23 months old child has recently been prescribed BIFILAC one dose twice a day by a local pediatrician for frequent diarrhoea of mid severity. My query is that is there any alternative available to the capsule form of the medicine like oral powder or syrup and the dosage for the same equivalent?

POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 9 yr 2 m old boy4 years agoA. Dehydration is the most dangerous aspect of diarrhoea and can even send a baby to the hospital if not treated on time. Replenishing the body’s lost fluids is the first step in treating diarrhoea. If the baby is drinking milk or formula without vomiting, continue feeding it often. Older babies can be given small sips of water, electrolyte solution, or an oral rehydration solution (ORS). Tender coconut water is also a rich source of electrolytes. Make your baby sip tender coconut water periodically.
