grandybaby has the run what home remedy can i give him?

Answer 1

first and foremost you don't mention the grandbaby's age, you should be checking with your doctor.

But a home made remedy which replaces pedialyte, and gastrolyte or lytren is as follows

Sugar- Salt Oral Rehydration Solution

2 Tbsp Sugar
1/4 tsp Salt
4 cups Boiled, cooled water
1/4 tsp Baking soda
(If you do not have baking soda you can use just the salt and increase the amount to 1/2 tsp)

no fruit juice or sugar based drinks as it only adds to the problem

Answer 2

Keep fluids in him, but avoid anything with sugar or milk. If it doesn't clear up quickly, he should go to the doctor to determine the cause and prevent dehydration.

Answer 3

Call the doctor. Children that have the runs can become very dehydrated quickly, much more so than adults, and that can be serious.

Answer 4

try 1 tsp of cider vinegar in some luke warm decaf tea.
