Hi,
Thanks for asking to HCM!
Due to diarrhea, your body has lost of plenty of water and electrolytes. Due to this, you feel tired, a symptom that almost every person with diarrhea experiences. Your job now is to replenish the water and electrolytes in your body and this can be done easily with the use of Oral Rehydration Salts. (ORS). Use ORS till you feel your energy levels are back to normal. There is absolutely no need to take any antibiotics as diarrhea has stopped. Just take rest and have ORS.
Also, ensure you have proper hygienic food with clean hands in the future to try and prevent diarrhea in the future.
Hope this solves your query. Feel free to ask if you have any doubt.

Regards,
Dr. Sridhar Reddy
