A member asked:
What to do about bad side effect as in diarrhea from amoxacillin? its really bad almost two days and very annoying.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Imodium (loperamide) AD: Unfortunately, antibiotic-induced diarrhea persists as long as you continue the med. If you are not having severe abdominal pains, fevers, bloody diarrhea, then you can try some Imodium (loperamide) ad. If you develop some of those other symptoms, let your doctor know because you may have something else more serious going on.
