Hi Munaz,
Thanks for writing your query.

After reading your post, it seems that you are having symptoms of abdominal discomfort and loose motion due to antibiotic Azithromycin.

Antibiotic usually disturb the normal flora of beneficial bacteria mainly lactobacillus, present in the intestines. These bacteria help in digestion and absorption of food. Antibiotic disturb this normal flora and result in loose motion and abdominal discomfort.

Taking of Lactobacillus preparation in the form of pre and probiotic will be beneficial. Taking yoghurt will also be good for you.

I hope this is helpful to you.
Thanks.
