Brief Answer:
Tab Colospa may cause loose stool sometimes
Detailed Answer:
Hello Mr Jaiain
I apologize for late reply
1) Tab. Sompraz is for acidity so you should continue it for your symptoms mentioned earlier
2) Tab. Colospa is for irritable bowel syndrome. It will help if you have symptoms of indigestion, bloating, abdominal pain after taking meals. Sometimes this tablet also cause loose stool. So I suggest you to try to skip Tab. Colospa for 2-3 days and if your loose motion improves means it was due to medications. In that case you should either reduce dose of that medication or stop it.
3) Vit-D deficiency is not associated with abdominal symptoms.
4) About diet; You should take non-spicy, less oily, properly cooked food, avoid over-cooked food or unhygienic foods
