A member asked:

I got prescribed ciprofloxacin in guatemala to treat diarrhea, nausea and lack of appetite ive had for a week. this was after taking a stool test which showed no presence of bacteria or parasites. is it advisable to take ciprofloxacin in this case?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Ciprofloxacin is often recommended to take along with oversee travel in case one develops traveler's diarrhea. Fortunately your stool culture was negative for enteric pathogens. Traveler's diarrhea isn't usually a serious issue. In my.opinion, if you're not troubled with severe diarrhea at this time, you could try stopping the ciprofloxacin& follow a soft,no harsh roughage diet until BMs improve.
