Can Ofloxacin And Ornidazole Be Taken For Diarrhea?
Question: My seven month baby suffering from loose motion 6-7 times in a day before 5 days, Can I use ofloxacin and omidazole suspension for loose motion
Brief Answer:
consult your doctor.
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for the query.
Consult your doctor before giving antibiotics for anything like loose motions, cough, cold.
As most of the cases are viral, which do not require antibiotics.
You should give probiotics like Eugi or Sporolac XXXXXXX lot of Oral rehydration solution and zinc supplementation.
Antibiotics like Ofloxocin and Ornidazalo should be given if there is bacteria in stool sample (which you will come to know after investigation) or if your treating doctor feels so.
Hope I helped you , let me know in case of any other queries.
