I had acute gastroenteritis dehydration and afi on 2nd april. I was on metronidazole ofloxacin ns and rl iv for 3 days. After that I was prescribed antibiotics for 5 days. Diarrhea got 10% better but not fully treated. Now it is suspects that I have ibs and I am on pantoprazole, mebeverine hydrochloride and chlordiazepoxide and vizylac. But I still have abdominal cramps and loose and malformed stools and they are light yellow and green coloured frequently. I also have heaviness in abdomen.
