Listeriosis is a disease caused by infection with the bacterium Listeria monocytogenes, and it is most often contracted after eating contaminated foods or liquids. Listeriosis most commonly affects newborns, the elderly, pregnant women, and those individuals with a poorly functioning immune system (immunocompromised).
I have been on Plaquenil and can tell you my diarrhea started within days of starting the med. My doctor warned me that diarrhea and weight loss were side effects. I said, Well, I am usually very constipated and could stand to lose 10 pounds so this could be a good thing.. haha.
If your symptoms do not improve within a few days, or if they become worse, check with your doctor. Cefdinir may cause diarrhea, and in some cases it can be severe. Do not take any medicine or give medicine to your child to treat diarrhea without first checking with your doctor. Diarrhea medicines may make the diarrhea worse or make it last longer. If you have any questions about this or if mild diarrhea continues or gets worse, check with your doctor.
