11 days of profuse diarrhea about 6x a day and accompanying abdominal cramps. Please what remedy?

Question

17 days ago I took APO CEFUROXINE for sinusitis. Everything seemed to be cured including bronchitis. 7 days later the diarrhea started...and now I'm coughing again and my vision is blurry.

Hello 😊 Since you have heavy diarrhea that continues after stopping the antibiotic and since you have blurred vision, I would recommend seeing a doctor today or tomorrow. You are at risk for dehydration. Be sure to drink a rehydration solution, such as Gastrolyte™, up to 2 liters per day. Take small sips as often as possible. If you are able, eat small meals more frequently throughout the day. Avoid very sugary or fatty foods. Better to see a doctor via a virtual consultation since you are coughing. You can use the Bonjour-Santé platform which allows you to have a teleconsultation. Happy day! Chloe P (Pharmacy student supervised by Alexandre)
