Brief Answer: Satrogyl is not needed. Detailed Answer: Hello, Thanks for trusting us with your health concern. The mild loose stools that you are having are common after a viral infection or a throat infection. This does not need an antibiotic therapy like Satrogyl immediately. This normally clears up on its own. Do take a bland diet, with no milk, black tea with lemon, and curd rice/khichdi with curd, and ripe bananas for a couple of days. Drink plenty of fluids to avoid dehydration. You can take probiotics to bring your gut flora back to normal. Get your stool examined and if it indicates infection or you are not better in five days, see your doctor for a course of antibiotics. You can meanwhile take Lomotil twice a day along with the diet I have suggested. Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have. Wishing you good health. Regards. Dr. Rakhi Tayal. For future query, you can directly approach me through my profile URL http://bit.ly/Dr-Rakhi-Tayal
