My mother age 63. She is going through with chemo. From July. From 3rd of dec. She was facing small surgery of wound with pus after that day she was facing loose motion in ever 2 hours. She is taking soft diet and medicines like. redotil-100 mg, oz, vizylac, and isabgol with curd. But not relief. Doctor gastro says it's colitis and prescribe vancomycin -250 mg before left colonoscopy. What to do? It's safe. Is this medicine reliable?
