Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted the history about your husband visiting a restaurant, having loose stools, took bi-quinol, Electral, antacid, crocin and metrogyl; and pomegranate .
Since the cause is obvious, this is gastroenteritis with its complications.
I would advise him the following:
Continue Metrogyl, Electral.
Clinical evaluation by your Doctor for examination and decide the investigations.
Send the stool for tests as well as blood.
Add on prescription based antibiotic.
Probiotics and multivitamins.
Give the full course and he will be fine.
I find this answer helpful
