Suggest Treatment For Ear Infection And Diarrhea
Question: I have an ear infection and am taking antibiotics I have been having diarrhea for past two days. I called my doctor and he said I can take Imodium. Is that okay to do?
Brief Answer:
Yes, you can take lomodium...
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for posting the query
Antibiotic induced diarrhea can be controlled either with lomodium or lactobacillus. I personally prefer to give lactobacillus to my patients when then present with similar symptoms. Lactobacillus replenishes the damaged flora in the stomach and the intestines.
Hope I have answered your query; I'll be available for the follow up queries.
