Recent change?: If you have RECENTLY changed to Lactogen and the diarrhea started, then the diarrhea may be caused by the new formula. However, if you have ALWAYS fed the Lactogen, and the diarrhea has only recently started, look for another cause. Offering an electrolyte solution such as Pedialyte after each loose stool can help prevent dehydration. Bloody diarrhea is always cause for concern, needing doctor.

Viral illness: Diarrhea may bedueto viral or bacterial infection ,give pedialyte to drink to prevent dehydration . If diarrhea persists or starts vomiting , talk to your doctor and get the baby checked up for any infection ,and get him treated .Continue feeding with lactogen .
