Thank you for asking on HealthcareMagic.com, providing better healthcare for you. I have gone through your case and I can understand your concern. Based on your history, I think you were diagnosed with acute gastroenteritis, an inflammation of your stomach and intestines caused by bacterial infection as your doctor prescribed antibiotic. Norflox TZ (Norfloxacin) is usually prescribed 400 mg orally every 12 hours, so you should take it twice daily for 3 to 5 days. Oral rehydration is very important for you! Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions. Wishing you good health. Please don't forget to give your valuable feedback and five star rating, to help me assist you in a better way. Click at 'I Find This Answer Helpful too'.
