Firstly, there is no medicine to stop the loose motions. Give him WHO ORS liberally to avoid dehydration. You can give dal-rice, curd rice, khichadi, sago grain porridge, apples, banana, pomegranate... these food items help to reduce the water loss from the body and growth of healthy bacteria in the intestine.
IF your child has poor urine output, is dull and drowsy then visit a Paediatrician
