HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, chances of infection may be very likely such symptoms should never be treated with Lopramide this could cause paralytic ileus and could be danger, in my opinion "Tab Metronidazole 400 mg twice in day for five days, this is may not be diverticulitis, hope this information helps, take care.
