Yes, it is. My husband and I had a bout of food-related diarrhea on September 9 and while he recovered completely in less than 24 hours, I have had frequent loose stools ever since. I suspect my gut biome has been disrupted by low-dose Doxycycline I was taking for Rosacea and stopped taking that but have not seen any real improvement yet. Also taking Immodium. Hoping for answers/relief when I see my gastroenterologist on Tuesday. I've been on a low FODMAP diet for 6 days - not sure how soon to expect results from that. I have less GI discomfort but no change in bowel habits.

Whenever I take antibiotics, I have GI problems as well. Have you tried taking probiotics? You can get probiotics through food, like yogurt, Kefir, etc., and you can also purchase probiotics over the counter.

Here is a list of foods that are high in probiotics,
