This study assesses whether prompting the supply of zinc and LO-ORS co-packs in the private sector coupled with behavior change communication (BCC) has an effect on the treatment of uncomplicated childhood diarrhea. In addition the study will evaluate the acceptability, adoption, feasibility and coverage of the intervention model. One group of children and caregivers will receive the current standard of care and will be exposed to standard BCC and the second group will be exposed to the private sector component and to a modified BCC.
