To treat loose motions, the most important step is preventing dehydration. Drink plenty of Oral Rehydration Salts (ORS) solution, coconut water, or clear broths. For relief, you can take a probiotic (such as Lactobacillus) to restore healthy gut bacteria. If the diarrhoea is watery and frequent (without fever or blood in the stool), generic Loperamide can help reduce stool frequency, or Racecadotril can help control fluid loss. Eat light, bland foods like bananas, rice, and toast. Please avoid taking antibiotics without a prescription. If you develop a high fever, severe pain, or if symptoms last more than two days, please consult a doctor.
