Hello,

The given symptoms of diarrhea is due to antibiotic, although it is the self-limiting condition but some time it may take some time because the intestinal flora takes some time for repair.

Antibiotic disturbs the intestinal flora and it get repaired on its own but some time it may needs pro-biotic medicine and lyophilized Lactobacillus is best option and you can try this.

You need to take care for dehydration and pain. For pain, I advise to try Dicyclomine with Paracetamol tablet.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Akhtarhusain
