Hello dear,

Thank you for your contact to health care magic.

I read and understand your concern.

I am Dr Arun Tank answering your concern.

Excessive drinking can cause diarrhoea. The reason for such a dirrhea is because the intestine becomes inadequate with the source of enzyme.

You are taking the nexium which can protect against the acidity but not against the loose stool.

I advice you to take high fibre diet like salads. This will prevent you a loose stool.

Please avoid excessive drinking as it also damage your liver. Keeping drinking under control prevents diarrhoea.

I will be happy to answer your further concern on bit.ly/DrArun.

Thank you,
Dr Arun Tank
