Patient: I have been diagnosed with amoebasis. given oflacin and ornidazole tablet for 2times for 3 days. For 1 day everything was fine. 2nd day stomach pain and loose stools started. what could be the cause. Could this be side effect and can I stop taking medicines. Doctor: Hello,  The symptoms seem to be related to side effect of Ornidazole. I suggest using an over the counter option such as Imodium for the diarrhea. I also suggest using daily probiotics and eating a healthy diet.Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.Regards,Dr. Dorina GurabardhiGeneral & Family Physician
