Report
My wife (53 yrs) is suffering from loose motion for past 2 yrs. We consulted a leading gastroenterologist in our area. He investigated the condition and prescribed the following medicines: Normaxin (plain) 0-0-1 for 15 days, Zinetac 150 mg ? daily one in morning for 15 days, T. Rcifax 200 mg - 1-0-1 for 5 days and T. Flagyl 400 mg ? 1-0-1 for 5 days. She had taken the medicine as per schedule but there is slight improvement in her condition. If she takes lopamide 2 mg ? one tablet in evening ,there is no loose motion.(Earlier before consulting Dr, she had taken probiotic and probiotic capsule viz Gastrobact ? daily one in morning and one in evening for 6 months). Please suggest the medicines to control the loose motion ,(she is taking tablets for DM, BP, depression and vertigo for past 5 yrs).

Dear Lybrate user, 1) patient having DM can suffer from loose motion if Nervous system is involved. 2) patient of depression can get diarrhoea. As one of the symptoms. Both the above disease should be brought under control. Later on think of other cause. Contact me or chat here for further advice.
