Is it normal for my baby to still have diarrhea 4 to 5 times a day after taking Z&D Zinc and Enterogermina for five days and Taxim O Forte for two days, even though they have no fever or vomiting?
It can be common for loose stools to persist for a few days, especially when starting an antibiotic like Taxim O Forte (cefixime), which can sometimes disrupt gut balance and cause mild diarrhea as a side effect. The Z&D Zinc and Enterogermina probiotic are actively working to help support his gut recovery. It is very reassuring that he has no fever or vomiting. Please focus on keeping him well-hydrated with plenty of fluids and ORS. If the diarrhea worsens, you notice blood, or he becomes unusually tired, please consult your pediatrician.
