hi,
are you taking syscan 150 daily?
its once week dose for common fungal infection.
it can cause loose motion.
but beside drugs many things may cause it.
you can stop syscan if on daily dose/twice weekly dose.
another thing is lobate-m is not only antifungal it also contain steroid.
so probably you are having other lesion also.
plese consult a dermatologist for proper guidence as he will examine the lesion.
good luck.
