A side effect of this medication is constipation, so it is making your stool tight and passing hard stools for prolonged periods can injure the rectal wall, causing bleed. It is advisable to stop the medication. If you are still suffering from bacterial infection of stomach, it is advisable to go on a proper antibiotic regimen after a medical consult and treat the infection.
