[|Human|] Hi I have had a tummy bug for 18 days now. feeling sick, hot and cold sweats, diarrhea, not wanting to drink. Not really eating some days had a little soup or just dry bread. Not atually being sick but feeling sick. Doctor prescibed me Dicycloverine to curb the tummy aches, but I still have diarrhea and sweats. Can I take loperamide as well as Dicycloverine.
[|AI|]  Hi. Thanks for your query. You have a tummy problem for 18 days with the associated symptoms as you have described. I would advise you the following:: Blood and urine tests - routine and for diabetes. Stool tests:: routine, microscopy, culture and sensitivity. A course of an antibiotic and metronidazole, probiotics. Take Dicyclomine only if there is a pain and operative only if the diarrhea is uncontrollable.
