Diarrhea: There may be other reasons for your diarrhea. I'm unable to find out what type of medication gasmutin is, but I don't think that stopping these medications for 5-7 days would cause any harm. If diarrhea subsides, resume them. If diarrhea recurs eliminate one to see which is the culprit. However your MD is best to answer your question.
