Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Stop spicy food, tamarind and eat properly cooked food, better to have a fiber food to relieve constipation.
If you are having more number of loose motions, then take Pantoprazole medicine with an empty stomach. IV Ofloxtinidazole and IV saline are given, when you are weak, later on, use tablet Oflox TZ.
Take ORS (Oral Rehydration Solution) daily for weakness, drink a lot of water, if still continuing to have the problem, then add pre and probiotic tablets.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Chaitanya Varma
