Hello, Welcome to HCM. Thanks for posting your query.I understand your concerns. Livogen-Z contains Ferrous Fumarate + Folic Acid.Iron content in the tablet is known to cause gastritis in some susceptible individuals.But it is quite well tolerated by many.
Your mother may be suffering from an episode of gastroenteritis which has caused her these symptoms.Ask her to continue the antibiotics and complete the course of antibiotics.
Also she can take sporolac tablets twice daily.It will help her to relieve the symptoms.
Hope i have answered your query.
Thank you
