Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for posting your query.
I am Dr.R.K and I am pleased to assist you.

Your mother is probably suffering from acute infectious colitis.
She has been prescribed the right medications. Let her continue taking them. She can take either cifran oz or rifagut and need not take both.

She needs to take enough fluids to remain well hydrated.

She can take BRAT diet (Banana Rice Apple sauce Toast).

Let me know if you have any more questions.
Regards,
Dr.R.K.
