By injecting?

No oo!?. Give it orally oo. Shake the mixture very well each time before putting in the syringe.

Another tip that will help is to add some brewers dry grain or palm kernel cake to their feed. The high fiber content will help stop the diarrhea.

For piglet diarrhea, here are some info I got after some research:

weaning age also contribute. Experts recommend 26-28 days or more as oppose to 21 days so that the piglets will develop strong Immune system and gastro-intestinal tract.

Other contributing factors are housing, population density, parity segregated production and the feeding regimen after weaning.

Maintain 26–28 °C. Cold conditions will make post weaning diarrhoea more severe. Feeding weaners 2x per day with a restricted amount of feed is bad. Rather feed 3x or more per day with or without restricting feed. Pelleted feed and inadequate feeder space also contribute.

Reducing the level of soybean meal in the feed reduces the severity and frequency of PWD (post weaning diarrhea) and oedema disease. Adding organic acids, probiotics, prebiotics, or zinc oxide (2400–3000 ppm in feed or zinc methionine (ZnM) at 500 mg/kg feed) and reducing feed protein content also help. Note that giving higher level of zinc will increase the diarrhoea incidence.

Good organic acids include citric, acetic, fumaric, lactic, propionic, benzoic and formic acids

Pls. Where can we get some of these organic acids?

Acetic acid is found in vinegar. We can easily produce it by fermenting sugary foodstuff to ethanol. Then exposing the ethanol to air for some days and it turns to vinegar. E.g. Get sugary foodstuff like fruit peels. Mix with enough water to cover it. Add some sugar and cover it tightly. But puncture a little hole on the lid for gases to escape. After one week or less you get ethanol. Then open the container and cover with handkerchief. This exposes it to oxygen and after one week or so, you get vinegar.

Other ones can be bought. They may not be easily found though.
