Hello, XXXXXXX,
Norflox tz contains two ingredients, main one
is Norfloxacin and the other Tinidazole.
The first one is used for infections (Bacterial) and
the other is used for parasitic infections such as amoebiasis
and other parasitic, protozoal infections.
For food poisoning Norflox should work.
I think it will be O.K. to use it and see if you get better.
If you continue to have symptoms , you may need further testing
of your stool and blood.
Hope you feel better soon.
