What Causes Clay-colored Stool Post Medication For Abdominal Cramps?

I had stomach cramps and nauseous a few days ago so I took over the counter antacids. Bowel movements have been normal and my pain and nauseous are gone and I feel much better now, but I noticed today both bowl movements were clay in color. Should I be concerned?

The symptoms you had mentioned are mostly suggestive of some gastric infection for which you can take some antibiotic preferably oflox-oz or zifi-oz after an expert advice along with omez-d or rekool-d empty stomach one hour before meal for severe gastric upset. You can take cyclopam or meftal-spaz for abdominal pain and cramps. Take some multivitamin like meganeuron-plus or metilda-forte once daily also.
