Urgenc Care or ER: if you've had two days of nonstop diarrhea with your IBS, you're going to need to go to the ER or urgent care where you may need IVs to replace your electrolytes. It's not just stopping the diarrhea, it's also rehydrating you so you don't pass out, or have ~possible cardiac problems occur. Once you're at there, the doctor will advise you what to take. So don't delay. Go there now!
