Hi thanks for writing to Practo consult. In loose motion treatment is directed towards "Not allowing baby yo dehydrate or loose deplete body water" and its not treatment for " STOPPING LOOSE MOTION" So as your doctor said it will continue for some time. Its very important for you to give ORS whenever baby passes loose motions. Do read my article it may help you.."Loose Motions or Acute Gastroenteritis" by Dr. Poonam.M.
