Brief Answer:
DYTOR could cause stomach upset

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Welcome To Ask A Doctor Service
I have gone through your question carefully actually dytor can sometimes cause stomach upset.
now this condition is not very common and and we do not see this side effect very much frequently.
the main side effect of dytor is frequent passage of urine means increased urine output, and this condition is very much common.
so one possibility is she feels frequent urge of urination and goes to toilet .
so ask her whether she is going for urination or defecation??

anyways frequent defecation maybe one possibility due to stomach upset caused by dytor.

now what is the solution??
give her probiotic capsules 3 times daily for 5 days along with dytor.
and then see the effects.
hope your query got solved.

thanks and regards
Dr Diwashish
