Dr. Kumawat Vijay Kumar MBBS , General Physician

Yes Sultax can cause diarrhea. It is a common side effect of this drug. This condition arises due to an imbalance in the gut flora. Generally, most of the antibiotics kill colonies of "good" as well as "bad bacteria" resulting in the imbalance of microbes causing diarrhea. You are recommended to avoid heavy and spicy meals along with the intake of this medicine. Also, keep yourself hydrated and take ample rest in case of mild diarrhea. If you have severe diarrhea consult with your doctor instantly he/she will prescribe you medicines to stop stool output. After you have completely recovered from diarrhea you can choose to have a "probiotic" to ensure the re-growth of good bacteria in your gut.
