What's the best medicine for diarrhea?

What is the best anti diarrhea medicine that works fast?

  • I get really bad diarrhea during big events that I am nervous about, which, as you can imagine, is really inconvenient. Along with the diarrhea I get bad gas and stomach pains. Which medicine is the best to help with this problem, and should I take it before I get diarrhea but when I know I will get it later that day? or should I take it once the diarrhea starts? Thank you!

  • Answer:

Hi, Prunes are likely to make your diarrhea worse, not better. Immodium is a good option and you are fine to take it before the diarrhea starts, just don't take the 2 that are recommended (that recommendation assumes you are already having diarrhea). Start with 1, and if that doesn't prevent it from happening, you are okay to then go up to 2. The other thing you may want to consider is the foods you eat when you are nervous or stressed as well. The combination of excessive dairy or fried foods may be contributing to your episodes of diarrhea. Simethicone should help with the gas and stomach pains too. You can usually find it in the baby section or just ask the pharmacist. This article can give you a little more in depth information on causes of diarrhea. There may be other things accompanying the stress level that may be able to be controlled. http://www.elder-home-care-help.com/causes-of-diarrhea.html Hope you find a good answer and a perfect combination so you don't have to worry about this anymore.
