Preventing "Delhi belly" aka "old wives tales for preventing delhi belly"

On a recent trip to Egypt we met a couple who had been advised by a doctor friend of theirs that he took an antibiotic when he visited India, which, he claimed, helped prevent the dreaded lurgi. They could not remember exactly the name of this but thought it was something like profaxycillin.

Anybody heard of/know anything about this?
