A member asked:

My 7yr old daughter have loose stool today (coffee colored stool) and running to comfort room for 7times this day.. what can it be?? any remedy?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Diarrhea: peptobismol 2 tablespoons every hour to slow down the stool and coat the intestines. If it is that severe, you can get some lomotil (diphenoxylat and atropine). take 2 at once the one after each loos bm up to 6/day. This is very common in the Phillappines. Just be sure she doesn't get dehydtarted
