Hello!
I'd suggest you just stick to Loperamide.
You can start with these-
-Tab. Loperamide 2mg BD (twice a day- Morning & Night)
- Cap. Pantoprazole + Domperidone (if vomiting), half hour before food for 3 days . in the morning.
- Tab Buscopan OR Dicyclomine BD for 3 days (this is for pain abdomen)
-ORS: LOTS of it ! This is your seat belt aka life line in the diarrhoea coster ride !
- Probiotic satchet : mix it with curd and have it thrice a day * 3 days
-Plenty of fluids
-Avoid spicy food
