Brief Answer:
Very unlikely to be linked to drug taken before diarrheao onset

Detailed Answer:
hi and thanks for the query.

the drug you are taking contains as active ingredient loratidine . it does not have as side effect diarrheoa or tiredness. I suggest other causes of diarrhoea should be checked. it is not rare however to feel tired after experiencing episodes of diarhea .

hemorroidal crises for sure can be provoked or aggravated by diarrhoea. I think it is important to stop the diarrhoea, investigate the cause appropriately and manage the hemorroid appropriately.

I am afraid your symptoms at this point in time are not due to the drug you took about since days ago. even if it is a rare side effect ,I strongly suggest other causes be checked first.

with much water lost with diarrheoa drinking enough water and fluids can be very helpful

thanks and kind regards as I wish the best if health. please do feel free asking follow up questions in case you have specific concerns
