loose motion medicine for adults - #14135
I am really stressing over this loose motion situation! It started last week after I tried this new restaurant that had some pretty crazy spices on the food but I thought - you know, why not! Well, fast forward a few days and bam, I was hit with non-stop loose motions. I mean, seriously, it was like every hour or two, just running to the bathroom. I even missed a day of work which is super annoying since I'm usually never sick. I've tried to hydrate and take it easy with bland food like toast and crackers, but it hasn't helped much. Now, I am wondering what’s the best loose motion medicine for adults? Like, are there specific over-the-counter meds that work better? My friend suggested doing like probiotics or something, but should I just stick to the traditional loose motion medicine for adults instead? I've heard about loperamide but also read that sometimes you shouldn’t take meds because your body is flushing out whatever’s causing the issue. I’ve just really got no idea what to do here! Any advice or suggestions for effective loose motion medicine for adults would be super helpful. Thanks in advance!
