I Am Having Diarrhea Took Immodium But Did Not Help. What Medication Should I Take ?
Hi, I vomited 2 nights ago. I also had the chills and then the sweats later the same night. When I woke up (that night) I went to the bathroom and I had diarrhea . 24 hours later, I had a 100% of my energy back, no fevers, no chills/sweat or headaches but I still have diarrhea. I took Immodium today and that didn t help. I ve had diarrhea for 48 hours ....... any suggestions??

Thanks for the query
Please donot take imodium, u might land up in serious cmplications. I suggest u take antibiotic like ciplox with tinidazole, tab redotril 100 mg three times daily and pleanty of water. Get your RFT done and see a doctor if it worsens
