There are many forms of healthy bacteria living in the human stomach to aid with digestion. When you take antibiotics you kill both the good and bad bacteria, leaving your diggestive system without the bacteria it needs to function. Take a pro-biotic formula following every antibiotic in order to restore the natural levels of the healthy bacteria.
If you or someone you love, experiences digestive problems, consider an assessment of the foods you eat. With conscious attention to what you place in your mouth and how it is prepared, you will find that small changes in your diet can lead to relief.
Problems with digestion include food Allergies, constipation, diarrhea, heartburn, irritable bowel syndrome, and the inflammatory bowel diseases including Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. They run the spectrum from annoying to life threatening.
What gets in the way of healthy digestion? Digestive problems begin when food is incompletely broken down in the digestive tract. Our bodies cannot break down, and absorb, food that is deficient in micronutrients. If our body does not contain healthy microorganisms in the digestive tract, then food is even harder to digest. In time, digestive symptoms arise such as abdominal pains, bloating, gas, and/or diarrhea. When food is not broken down properly, it can enter the bloodstream where it can bloom into a food allergy. If it remains in the stomach, heartburn may occur.
What types of food help digestion? A good example of the digestive system at work is found in raw dairy products. Raw milk contains proteins, fats, and carbohydrates (sugars) called macronutrients. Raw milk from healthy, grass fed, pasture raised cows will also contain the micronutrients (vitamins, minerals, and enzymes) needed for the milk to be digested. As the milk enters the environment of the mouth, enzymes in it are activated and begin carbohydrate breakdown. In the stomach, protein-digesting enzymes are activated. In the small intestine, fat-digesting enzymes break down fats into fatty acids. The body is able to utilize the full nutritional value of raw milk because it contains the components required for complete digestion. Milk that is ultra-pasteurized (a process of heating the milk before it is poured into cartons) has lost most of the natural enzymes and nutrients because they are very sensitive to heat. This means that supermarket milk does not provide our bodies with the natural enzymes to digest it. When a person has difficulty digesting milk, we call that lactose intolerance. Most people who think they are lactose intolerant are quite capable of digesting raw milk or raw cheeses because these foods contain the micronutrients the body needs to digest them.

Bacteria in your colon helps with digestion. An antibiotic may kill some of this bacteria.
Because many of the good bacterias in your digestive tract which aids in bowel movement will also be eliminated by antibiotics which is intended to kill the bad bacteria in your infection.
cuz it kills the good probiotic bacteria that helps digestion
The most common cause of diarrhea in parakeets is giardia, a gastrointestinal parasite. Your veterinarian will probably prescribe an oral antibiotic like Baytril that your bird will need to take for a few days to clear up the infestation.
Constipation is not a side effect of Clavamox. Diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, and loss of appetite are possible though.
