Hi thombrepk, and thanks for your question.
As you may be aware, all medications have a list of potential side effects that may occur for patients who take them. These side effects are potential and don't necessarily affect everyone who takes the medication.
If you feel that the medication you are taking (Ab-flo 100) is causing the side effects you mentioned (loss of appetite and diarrhea), you may want to bring this to the attention of your prescribing physician. You can discuss this with him/her - it is possible the doctor may suggest an alternate medication for you that is equally efficacious, but without the side effects.
What do you think?
Wishing you the best,
