I have been having loose motions for 4 days and have not found any relief after taking Imodium and Oflox OZ. What medicine should I take now?

Since you have not found relief after four days of taking Oflox OZ and Imodium, you must stop self-medicating and consult a doctor immediately. Continued diarrhea despite an antibiotic/antiprotozoal and an antimotility agent suggests the infection may be viral, resistant, or non-infectious. Imodium can sometimes worsen certain infections by trapping toxins in your system.Please focus entirely on hydration using Oral Rehydration Salts (ORS) and clean fluids to prevent dehydration. Your doctor will likely recommend a stool test to identify the exact cause and prescribe appropriate, targeted medication. Seek urgent care if you develop a high fever, severe pain, or blood in your stool.
