Brief Answer:
Rifamaxin.

Detailed Answer:

Hi,

Please add tab rifamaxin (RIFASTOP).

Continue tab sporolac.

Add tab rabeprazole.

Continue ORS but take ORS in small sips only as large quantities of ORS may lead to loose stool.

You may take curd rice or khichrhi but whatever you take please take small quantities at a time.

You are avoiding salty spicy foods and it is a wise step.

With these, you will cure soon.

Do not worry.

Usually, loose motions take time to get cured.

Hope I have answered your query.

Regards,
Dr. Varinder Joshi, General & Family Physician
