Question 1

I've been experiencing watery motions frequently. I took Zenflox OZ, but theres been no relief. What should I do?

Dr Y Thulasi · Accepted Answer

Stopping self-medication and seeing a doctor for stool testing is advised since frequent watery motions that do not improve after using Zenflox-OZ could be caused by a viral infection, dietary intolerance, or dehydration. Drink lots of ORS, stay away from greasy or spicy foods, and get medical help right away if you have a fever, blood in your stools, or weakness.

Question 2

I am experiencing loose motions and undigested food since last night. Can you recommend a medicine?

Dr Veda Maddala · Accepted Answer

For loose motions with undigested food, you can take ORS for hydration and Loperamide or Racecadotril for symptom relief. Avoid heavy or oily foods and stick to light meals. If you develop fever, blood in stool, or worsening symptoms, see a doctor for evaluation and medication.

Question 3

I've had loose motions for the past 36 hours with oily stools and cramping pain in my lower abdomen. I took ofloxacin (O2) but it didnt help. No appetite.

Dr Veda Maddala · Accepted Answer

Persistent loose motions with oily stools and cramping despite taking Ofloxacin may suggest intestinal infection, food intolerance, or malabsorption. Take ORS, Racecadotril, and a probiotic, and avoid heavy foods. If symptoms continue another 12-24 hours or you develop fever or dehydration, get a stool test and medical evaluation.

Question 4

I have acute amoebiasis and bowel disorder syndrome.

Dr Veda Maddala · Accepted Answer

Acute amoebiasis and bowel disorder syndrome can cause abdominal pain, loose stools, and weakness. You may need anti-amoebic medicines (like Metronidazole), ORS, and a light, easily digestible diet. If symptoms persist or worsen, get a stool test and follow-up with a doctor for proper treatment.

Question 5

I have loose motions and go 4-5 times in one hour.

Dr Veda Maddala · Accepted Answer

Frequent loose motions like 4-5 times an hour suggest severe diarrh0ea or infection. Take ORS immediately to prevent dehydration and consider loperamide only if no fever or blood in stool. If symptoms continue, see a doctor for proper evaluation and treatment.

Question 6

Are there any side effects of Zenflox-OZ for a woman who is 3 months pregnant?

Dr Veda Maddala · Accepted Answer

Zenflox-OZ is not considered safe in pregnancy, especially in the first trimester, because ofloxacin may affect the baby's bone and cartilage development. A pregnant woman should avoid it and consult her doctor immediately for a safer alternative.

Question 7

What is the normal dosage of Zenflox-OZ for a stomach infection?

Dr Veda Maddala · Accepted Answer

The usual adult dose of Zenflox-OZ is 1 tablet twice daily, but the exact dose and duration depend on the type and severity of the stomach infection. Always take it only on a doctor's prescription, as misuse can cause side effects or antibiotic resistance.

Question 8

I have been having bowel movements 3-4 times after every meal for 40 days now. What could be causing this?

Dr Veda Maddala · Accepted Answer

Frequent post-meal bowel movements for 40 days may be due to irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), infection, malabsorption, or food intolerance. A stool test, thyroid test, and review of your diet/medications are important. Consult a doctor if symptoms persist, worsen, or cause weight loss or dehydration.
