Diarrhea: To treat diarrhea, I recommend avoiding all roughage and spicey,fried foods for now and take kaopectate as directed. Imodium (loperamide) is stronger and can be taken for a short term. If liquid stools persist longer than a,week, consult your physician who will order stool cultures to check for infection by pathogenic bacteria or parasites . For chronic diarrhea, a gastroenterologist is best qualified to treat
