Specializes in Nephrology and Dialysis

Discuss with doctor: High output ileostomies can be quite problematic. Sometimes a medication called loperamide is used to purposefully slow down the stool rate. This should be done under the care of a knowledgeable physician as complications and side effects can be severe.
