What medicine should be used for children's diarrhea with watery yellow stools?

Patient's question:

This morning, upon waking up, I started having yellow loose stools. In the afternoon, it was watery yellow loose stools. Today, for unknown reasons, I took sea buckthorn, nutmeg, and a compound bifidobacteria oral solution.

Doctor's answer:

Detected infant diarrhea, it is recommended to check and test whether it is indigestion or intestinal inflammation. Also, pay attention to whether it is caused by a cold leading to intestinal dysfunction. If it is indigestion, oral medications such as Shanmai Jianpi Koufuye (Mountain Millet Strengthening Spleen Oral Liquid) and Montmorillonite Powder should be recommended. For severe cases, consult a doctor for intravenous treatment, extend the interval between feedings to allow the stomach and intestines to rest, and increase fluid intake. If supplementary foods are being introduced, they should be temporarily stopped or reduced. Gradually resume adding supplementary foods once the condition improves. Especially avoid foods that are difficult to digest.
Condition Analysis: Detected infant diarrhea, it is recommended to check and test whether it is indigestion or intestinal inflammation.
