Stools: Your ne symptoms could be Motrin related but could also be something else. I'd recommend seeing your doctor to be evaluated.

Gastritis: Non- steroidals can cause gastric irritation and diarrhea. They should be taken with meals in order to prevent those issues, but that is not always effective. Enteric coated nsaid's may be effective.
