Is it safe and appropriate to treat ongoing severe diarrhea with Norflox TZ (two tablets twice a day) and Lomotil (two tablets every four hours) after the vomiting has stopped?

Asked by Female, 28 · 25 days ago

Taking two tablets of Norflox TZ (norfloxacin/tinidazole) twice a day is higher than the standard dose of one tablet twice daily. Additionally, taking Lomotil (diphenoxylate/atropine) every four hours can be risky, as it slows your bowel movements and can trap the infection inside your body. Please focus on staying hydrated with oral rehydration salts (ORS) and consult a doctor right away to adjust these dosages safely.
