Hi
You have been affected with Bacterial or Parasitic or Mixed infection.
Your antibiotic should contain a Quinolone like Levofloxacin and Metronidazole.
You should add a Pre and Probiotic capsule also.
You can drink coconut water.
The powder that you were recommended could be Electrolyte sachet.you should take it also.
Please don't eat outside food.
Wish you good health and speedy recovery
Regards
