Suggest Treatment For Diarrhea While On Doxycycline And Birth Control

I just returned from being in Peru for 7 weeks.
Since my return last Wednesday I've had diarrhea and began takin my prescribed Cipro . My stool has become green and mucous-y. I have one more pill left on the Cipro should I wait to go to a doctor or go tomorrow. Additionally, I am on Doxycycline (for Malaria) and birth control pills.

antibiotics are a big cause of diarrhea, I would see how your movements change off the cipro. if you continue to have issues , consider an anti diarrheal medication such as loperamide, immodium.
