Medications like laxatives or antibiotics can also lead to diarrhea in children as well as adults. For mild diarrhea caused by medication, keep your child safely hydrated. If a course of antibiotics is causing your child's diarrhea, be sure to continue the medication and call your doctor.
Call your childâs doctor or pediatrician right away if they have diarrhea lasting more than 24 hours, especially if they also have a fever. Chronic diarrhea can lead to shock or organ damage in infants and young children. Diarrhea is also a major cause of malnutrition in children under the age of 5. Many of these cases are due to contaminated water and food. In developing countries, a child under the age of 3 is likely to have three episodes of diarrhea a year. Each incident deprives the child of nutrition needed for growth.
