A member asked:
Leaving for10 day vaca today. do not want diarrhea, started vanco yesterday, can i use imodium (loperamide) and probiotics? 5 hr plane trip.help ty

Yes: I particularly advise culturelle, a specific probiotic available at many pharmacies, and florastor. These will help prevent the most serious types of diarrhea associated with vancomycin. No need to use Imodium (loperamide) unless you actually get diarrhea. Have a good vacation!
