How Can Appetite Loss Be Treated While On Flagyl?
My mother is taking a medicine Flygle, I believe that is what it is called , antibiotic. But now she no longer has an appetite and has not had much or anything to eat for over 4 days. She was in rehab for leg blood clot and has a would vac for that condition. My concern is her weight loss . She is only 105 lbs, 5 feet 6 inches. I m worried she needs to get nutrition in her. Would a pill for increase appetite be a good idea?
