Hi doctor.I had Pantocid HP after doctor advice and had loose motion 4-5 times. For stopping loose motion what shall I do? For past six days I am taking Pantocid HP kit. No problem except loose motion of about 5-6 times and some weakness.I am taking Bifilac HP one tablet daily and a vitamin capsule. How long loose motion will happen as it is a 14 days course. I know this is a side effect.Can I take electrol powder (ORS) and coconut water? Should I follow any food restriction except spicy food?
Hi. I have seen your reports (attachment removed to protect patient identity). Pantocid HP kit contains Pantoprazole, Amoxicillin and Clarithromycin and is used in the treatment of gastritis by Helicobacter pylori bacteria.

You can take ORS (oral rehy ChatDoctor.  I also suggest you to take Imosac M (combination of Loperamide Hy
