10 days diarrhea after taking antibiotics ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Diarrhea: It is possible you may have C DIFF (clostridium difficile) colitis. A stool test can help determine this. Please take probiotics (lactobacillus acidophilus) which are available without prescription, and stay hydrated. Seek medical attention right away.
