Acute gastroenteritis

2022-11-09 11:36:48
I was diagnosed with acute gastroenteritis two days ago. I took oflox oz for two days, now I no longer have diarrhoea but I feel constipated and have very strong headache. Should I continue taking oflox oz for one more day to complete a 3 day course. Doc only prescribed for 2 days.
