ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial aims to find out which combination of treatments works best for children aged 6 months to 5 years who have acute diarrhea. Researchers will compare four different groups of treatments that include supplements like zinc and probiotics, which are good for gut health. The main goal is to see how long it takes for the diarrhea symptoms to go away after starting treatment. This information will help doctors understand the best ways to manage diarrhea in kids and improve care guidelines.

To participate in this study, children must be between 6 months and 5 years old and have acute diarrhea. Parents or caregivers will need to agree to let their child take part in the trial. However, children with chronic diarrhea, severe dehydration, certain allergies, or other serious health issues will not be included. The trial is not recruiting participants yet, but it's an important step toward improving treatment options for childhood diarrhea.
