Taking repeated doses of deworming medicines (like Bandy Plus) and multiple antibiotics within a short period can disrupt the gut flora (healthy bacteria in the intestines), potentially causing lingering weakness, digestive upset (diarrhea), and sometimes even anxiety, since gut health and mental well-being are closely linked.
Expected recovery:
Mild antibiotic-related side effects (loose stools, indigestion) usually improve within 2–4 weeks after stopping the medicines.
However, gut bacteria may take a few months to fully recover, especially after repeated antibiotic courses. Rarely, effects can persist longer if gut flora is severely depleted.
What to do now:
Continue probiotics daily for at least 2–4 weeks. Choose high-potency probiotics (with diverse strains) if available.
Incorporate more fermented foods into your diet (curd/yogurt, buttermilk, home-prepared pickles, kanji, idli, dosa).
Eat plenty of fruits, vegetables, and soluble fiber to support healthy gut bacteria.
Rest, hydration, and a nutrient-rich balanced diet will help your body recover.
Avoid unnecessary use of antibiotics, anti-parasitic drugs, or self-medication in the future.
If you continue to suffer from severe weakness, persistent diarrhea, or significant anxiety beyond 3–4 weeks—or if new symptoms appear—please consult your physician for evaluation. Blood tests to rule out nutritional deficiencies, anemia, or other underlying causes may be advised.
Take care. Most side effects from antibiotics and deworming medicines are temporary and will resolve with supportive care.
This advice is consistent with clinical and gut health guidelines regarding post-antibiotic and antiparasitic-recovery timelines and strategies.
