"Stomach Problems"?: On the surface of this it seems there may need to be a definitive diagnosis. Heartburn, gerd or reflux of stomach acid, viral gastroenteritis, infectious or travelers diarrhea? Only one of these conditions is really treated with antibiotics unless you have h. Pylori (a bacteria in some people's stomach that needs to be treated if you have ulcers or resistant gastritis). Need more info to answer.
