Hello, Mox-Clav is an antibiotic which is started if there is suspicion of a bacterial cause of rspiratory infection. Abdominal discomfort and loose motions are a common side-effect of the medicine. Econorm shold help in decreasing it,Antibiotics once started started,you should finish the entire course of it.
Next Steps
1] Continue Econorm and the antibiotic[since it has been already started]. 2] Revisit the doctor in case of worsening of symptoms.
Health Tips
1] Give light dietwhich is easy to digest. 2]Econrom is a probiotic, you can naturalprobiotics in the diet for example curd.
