Overview
Common causes of acute diarrhea in children are infections. infectious gastroenterits is most commonly caused by Rota virus, Shigella, Enterotoxigenic E.coli ETEC , Campylobacter, Cryptosporidium parvum.

Other common causes are food allergies,drug side effects. Less commonly acute diarrhea can be a symptom in the initial stages of systemic conditions including Ischemic colitis, Hyperthyroidism, Tropical sprue and with disorders of digestion and absorption process.
