General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello..Eldoper is not advisable after previous episode of intake of antibiotics.

Your condition may hint towards antibiotic associated mild colitis..inflammation and increased bowel movements lead to those loose stools.
Stop taking antibiotics and Tab. Metronidazole 500mg tid for 3days may relieve the condition.
Take oral fluids frequently to prevent dehydration.
