A member asked:
Why do i have diarrhea everyday unless i take loperamide hydrochloride?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Need to be seen: My first concern is malabsorption / maldigestion; my second is functional bowel syndrome; my third is a colon or other tumor. Loperamide just slows the gut down. You may be masking serious disease by not getting this checked. Good luck.
