Hello;
welcome to HealthcareMagic
Noflox TZ is a combination of Norfoxacin and Tinidazole both antibacterial and antiprotozoal so you can use it for stomach infections like loose motions.Normally it is better to take medication after the doctors advice and avoid self drugging but since you have taken one dose and did not have any problems you can continue it for 5 days as a proper course.You still not have felt better with one dose because you took half tablet and the proper dose needed for an adult is 1 tablet twice a day so take another half tablet now and you will be fine after the second dose so no need to change the medicine.
Thanks
