Are you taking any medications?

I usually have to take Esomeprazole Magnesium Hydrate and Fursultiamine Hydrochloride. Last Monday, the doctor prescribed Sodium Alginate, a green-to-pale-green viscous liquid. It was disgusting. I have diarrhea. I have read the information about possible adverse reactions to this medication.
What should I do?

1. Try to use contractions to make your sentences more idiomatic.
It could be a side effect of the medication. Did the diarrhoea start when you started taking Sodium Alginate? How long have you had it?

It started when I started taking Sodium Alginate. I have been experiencing the symptoms from two days ago.

1. Here is an alternative expression you can use. ''since''
Okay, I see. I think they're side effects of the medication. Why did the doctor prescribe you the medication? I think we should give you a substitute.

I was taking my usual medications but my symptoms worsened so I was given an additional prescription for a new medication.

1, 2. A compound sentence includes two independent clauses joined by a coordinating conjunction (for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so). In a compound sentence, the conjunction is, in most cases, preceded by a comma. However, if both independent clauses are very short, it’s acceptable to omit the comma.
  • take(服用する )
  • meal(食事)
  • medicine for cold(風邪薬)
