Well worthwhile getting a stool examination done at a good pathology Centre to look for any odd stool infection.
Can try a dose of Nizonide 500mg twice a day for 3days and bandy 400"mg single dose after consulting your physician. Also can take a probiotic like vsl 3 once a day for 10days
Also take plenty of fluids orally.
Continue rest medication as before.
