Brief Answer:
It has I think caused acidity because of double dose causing irritant diarrhea

Detailed Answer:
Hi welcome to HCM,

You are probably taking Instaflex advanced for knee joint problems since it contains Resveretrol, collagen and Hyaluronic acid.

It has most probably caused acidity because of double dose, leading to irritant diarrhea.
Please take a preparation of Omeprazole (20mg) plus one tablet of Loperamide (2mg) twice daily before food for 2-3 days and I think you will be better.

I hope you are taking Instaflex after meals.

And a humble advise--'too much of a good thing is not necessarily better!'
Please revert back with further queries if you need.
Regards
