Diahrrea since asia trip
by nana633, Jun 28, 2009 04:10PM
I'm a 64 year old woman and my husband and I spent 3 weeks on a cruise from Bejiing to Hong Kong in March,2009. I got diahrea just shortly after the cruise started. Since then each time I eat and sometimes in between I have a runny bowel movement. I have been on 2 antibiotics and 2 meds. One was Flagl 500 3 x a day for 10 days and the other was metro(s0mething) for 10 days 3 x a day. Can you please help me find an answer somewhere. Oh yes, my stool sample came back negative for parasites.
Thanks

I'd also contact a travel clinic or the infectious diseases department at a university hospital.
If Metronidazole (an antibiotic) is the one you took, it's the same as Flagyl. Common adverse reactions associated with systemic metronidazole therapy include nausea, diarrhea, and/or metallic taste in the mouth.
