thailiketoo Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 What is the difference to my stomach/intestines between Furazolidone and Nifuroxazide? Both used to stop diarrhea I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheryl Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 Both are antibiotics of the "nitrofuran" class. They will be useful for diarrhea only if the diarrhea was caused by a susceptible bacteria or protozoa which is often not the case. Like all antibiotics they will also wipe out normal gut flora which can make diarrhea worse so advisable only when it is reasonably certain what the cause is.
