Most antibiotics have the potential to cause either loose stool or runny diarrhea. The chance of dry stool or constipation is very low from taking antibiotics. However, some illnesses need a combination of meds so another medication may be causing the dry stools. For example, a doctor might prescribe a decongestant and an antibiotic. The decongestant would be more likely to cause constipation or dry stool.
