Question
A child has started experiencing diarrhea at night due to an unknown cause, initially with loose stools, which has now turned into watery diarrhea. What medication should be chosen for treatment?
Answer
If the diarrhea is caused by poor diet and the duration is not long, the child’s body can usually regulate itself and gradually recover the next day. However, if the symptoms do not subside, medication treatment can be considered. Common medication options include ciprofloxacin tablets, and probiotics can also be taken in appropriate amounts to regulate intestinal function.
