Is Bifilac Sufficient After Undergoing Gallstone Surgery?
Dear Dr., After gallstone surgery, I have been medicated with BIFILAC, PROTERA etc. Even after using these loose motion continues. The same event was seen before surgery. My body weight is decreasing day by day. I am a blood sugar patient and using medications for that also. Blood sugar is found now under control. I want your suggestion. Best regards, Rathin Ghosh Age-45 years

Hi there,
Thanks for using HCM.
Diarrhea is a known complication of gallbladder removal. It is self limiting and will stop soon.
It is due to bile not getting absorbed.
You can take cholestyramine supplements for relief.
