What medication can my sister take to stop frequent loose stools after recovering from a fever, given that she is already taking Shelcal, Zincovit, and Vitamin C?

Asked by Female, 30 · 6 days ago

She can safely start a probiotic supplement (containing Saccharomyces boulardii or Lactobacillus) to restore her gut health. Drinking oral rehydration salts (ORS) is crucial to keep her well-hydrated. She can continue taking Zincovit and Vitamin C, as zinc is very helpful for diarrhea recovery. However, she may temporarily pause Shelcal until her stomach settles, as calcium supplements can sometimes irritate a sensitive gut. Focus on a light diet like bananas and rice. If the loose stools persist for more than 48 hours or worsen, please consult a doctor.
