Diarrhea refers to the passing of loose, watery stools three or more times a day due to an infection in the gastrointestinal tract. Stan RO Oral Suspension reduces the excessive secretion of water and electrolytes and helps replenish the lost fluids and salts.

Your child may start to feel better after getting treated for a few days to a week. However, do not extend the course or stop the medicine by yourself without consulting your child’s doctor. This may lead to the recurrence of symptoms.
