Can Taking Norflox TZ Be Safe To Treat Loose Motions?

Hi.. I am suffering from loose motions for more than 24 hrs now.. i had to visit the washroom 14 times and counting. Since last evening I am having fever as well for which I took Calpol. Even though fever seems to be in control but my weak stomach continues. Should i take Norflox TZ or only Norflox? N is it mandatory to have it in empty stomach? Please help.

Hi,
Yes Norflox TZ is safe for loose motions and it is not mandatory to take it with empty stomach. You need to take it twice a day for 5 days.
-Also you may take meftal-spas for stomach cramps.
-Also take sporolac tablets along with norflox TZ.
-take loperamide tablet

Hi
Thank you for asking HCM
I have gone through your query.Norflox Tz is combination of 2 antibiotics which can be given in infective diarrhoea like bacterial or protozoal. You should take it only with the prescription of your doctor if indicated.Usual loose motions can be managed by ORS and probiotics.Antibiotics is not given initially.You can take curd rice also as probiotic.Hope this may help you.
Let me know if you have any further query.
