Suggest Remedy For Stomach Upset

I am a female, age 22, with straight sexual orientation. I was tested positive for chlamydia, and was prescribe 4 250mg tablets of azithromycin. I took the pills shortly after breakfast. A few hours later I felt stomach pain and threw up. At the same time I felt nausea and wanted to vomit. Those symptoms calmed down after an hour or so, then I had diarrhea. It s been a few hours and my stomach still feels funny and I have lots of gas, as well as loose stool. Is it normal to feel this?

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of stomach upset which seems to be due to viral infection leading to acute gastroenteritis and your symptoms could be secondary to stomach infection. It seems to be due to electrolyte imbalance in body. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to visit gastroenterologist once and get it examined if symptoms keeps on persisting. Avoid stress. Drink lots of water to maintain adequate hydration. Avoid fast foods, carbonated drinks & gas producing food products like cabbage, etc. You should take soft, plain, non-spicy foods. You should avoid intake of outside food. You should lessen use of milk and milk products. You should take tab norflox tz twice daily with tab lomotil twice daily for 3 days.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
