Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for your query.
Usually, gastroenteritis will recover in 1 to 2 days if its viral on its own. Symptomatic treatment by keeping yourself hydrated well and adequate rest should be good. You have already started on Rifagut which is an antibiotic. If possible discontinue the antibiotic.
Continue tab. eldoper if you are having loose stools more than 2 to 3 motions per hour. Continue coconut water, ORS and water. Eat soft bland diet such as idly/curd rice/khichdi.
You can add a probiotic such as Enterogermina which come in respules, 1 respule two times a day for 2 to 3 days.
I hope this answered your query.
