Treatment of traveler's diarrhea includes antibiotics and antidiarrheal medications. A typical regimen would include a loading dose of loperamide (Immodium) and a fluoroquinolone antibiotic such as ciprofloxacin or levofloxacin. Over the counter anti-diarrheal medications do not cure the underlying illness but may provide temporary relief allowing the traveler to enjoy brief sight-seeing episodes or endure a plane trip home.
Also, drink a lot of fluids with electrolyte (gatorade) in it.

Also known as Giardia. You need antibiotics to really clear it up.
