Suffering From Loose Motions. Taking O2, Bifilac Hp Medication, Stopped, Symptoms Persists. Suggestions?
I was suffering from loose motion and after doctor visit I was prescribed for the O2 medicine 1x2 for 5 days and Bifilac HP 1x2 for 10 days, I felt very good and fit for first 5 days but after 5 days when I was continuing Bifilac HP only the problem started again, I went to the doctor again and said the detail, doctor said take O2 agai for 5 more days but it is now only 2-3 days I am with the same problem , what should I do ?
You had episode of diarrhea and was advised to take ofloxacin and bifilac. Ofloxacin is an antibiotic drug and it is a broadspectrum antibiotic. When given in combination with ornidazole it covers almost all enteric bacteria. You have finished the five day course and still having episodes of loose motion. The reason behind symptoms may be- - Some worm infection, so need to take antihelminthic drug like Albendazole is there. - If everything come normal and symptoms may persist even them. If symptoms persist or increase in severity in presence of stress then most likely the symptoms are occurring due to Irritable Bowel Syndrome. I would advise you to please visit a psychiatrist for expert opinion.
Hope it helps you, thanks
