What else should be done for children's diarrhea?

Patient's question:

I went to the hospital, and the doctor also prescribed probiotics and digestive granules. I have been taking them continuously, and I am also eating lactose-free formula, but the diarrhea still hasn't improved. Is there any other solution now?

Doctor's answer:

The results of this routine stool examination are usually normal, with no red or white blood cells. When a child has diarrhea, the stool appears yellowish-green. Typically, when probiotics are given to a child, other medications may need to be added, such as montmorillonite.
Opinion/Suggestion: This condition requires recovery time. Usually, even with oral medication, diarrhea is more common and it may take about 5 days to return to normal. Fluid therapy, on the other hand, is more severe.
