[|Human|] Hi dr...... my son is 16 months old. he has just recovered from viral fever and was hospitalized for 4 days. now after 15 days ..he is passing very foul smelling water motions.. and seems to have stomach pain while passing motions. He does not have fever at all. I have given 2.5 ml of Macpod once in a day. plz advise.
[|AI|]  Thank you for asking on Chat Doctor. Diarrhea in child Chat Doctor.  Stool is generally foul smelling in such cases. Unless associated with bloody stools the cause is not important and does not need to be treated. All you have to do is give ORS to replenish the salt and water loss. In case of abdominal colic, antispasmodics like demonic can be given. Macpod is cefuroxime, an antibiotic which was not essential but since you have begun it, you should complete the 5-day course of twice daily dose. Hope that helps. Feel free to revert in case of further queries if any.
