Brief Answer:
Yes, you can but not for all preparations!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks so much for this query.

It is okay to take an antacid after taking norfloxacin and tinidazole. However, I must know what the exact medication is. If this is a chewable tablet, it might not be totally acceptable unless taken several hours after apart.

In all, I will like to know the exact preparation before giving a final response.

I wish you well. Feel free to follow up with me if need be.
