A member asked:

Good day. my daughter is 6 month old. she was sick with a cold and flu so she had antibiatics. but is finish. she has now diarehea. so i do not know if it is because the bug is coming out or what should i do. ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Hard to know: The antibiotics may have also upset the natural germ balance in her gut. At 6 mo simply adding applesauce and rice cereal to her feeds will often slow/stop the loose stools in a few days. Over time the gut will self heal & things should return to normal. As long as she feeds well & wets every 6 hrs this can be monitored at home.If it lasts more than 3 wks she needs to be seen.
