Is it safe to give Sporlac powder or Furoxone syrup to my 7-month-old baby who has had worsening diarrhea for the past two days, and what is the correct medication to treat this?

For a seven-month-old, the most critical step is preventing dehydration. You can safely give Oral Rehydration Salts (ORS) in small, frequent sips. While Sporlac (a probiotic) can help support gut health, Furoxone (furazolidone) is a strong medication that is not safe to give without a doctor's direct prescription, especially since most infant diarrhea is viral. Because the diarrhea is worsening, please do not start these medications on your own. I strongly recommend taking your baby to a pediatrician immediately for a proper evaluation and safe, tailored treatment.
