Amoxicillin can disrupt gut flora, leading to diarrhea. To reduce risk, taking probiotics and staying hydrated helps maintain intestinal balance.
Amoxicillin use increases diarrhea risk by affecting beneficial bacteria in the gut. Eating fermented foods and avoiding unnecessary antibiotic use can mitigate this.
Diarrhea from amoxicillin results from gut microbiome alteration. Eating a balanced diet and using probiotics can help preserve gastrointestinal health.
