Hi welcome to health care magic forum.
The over dose of the hydrocodone and acetaminophin, may cause nausea, and gastric irritation, rarely may cause the diarrhea.
If the diarrhea is more, i advise you to consult a physician for diagnosis and treatment.
I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms ofloxacin, omeprazole, domperidone,and loperamide, to suit even the bacterial diarrhea.
Take more of green leafy vegetables, pulses, sprouts, and protein
rich foods to prevent such break outs.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery.Thank you.
