Imodium for diarrhea gluten free

[Rene Luevanos]

I took some for the first time. I was so sick with pain. Is there other things I can do for the diarrhea?

There are better and safer alternatives to Imodium: https://www.dailybody.net/is-imodium-gluten-free/ You might also consider that the real issue with Imodium is the lactose (first ingredient) rather that any gluten it may contain. Many celiacs cannot handle dairy products.

Please tell us more about your experience. Are you having diarrhea much of the time or only when you accidentally? consume gluten?

Have you been formally diagnosed with celiac disease or do you suffer from Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS) instead? How long ago were you diagnosed? Have you been diligent in pursuing a gluten-free diet?

I'm asking these questions to focus on the cause of your diarrhea instead of a band aid fix like anti-diarrhea medication.

I was diagnosed in 2004. Yes I been on a gluten free eating since then and I felt so much better. I woke up Monday night with the diarrhea on to Tuesday on and off.  I think it had to do with cross contamination at a restaurant I went too. I order something different. But made sure it was in the gluten-free for me. This has never happened to me before.

Prunes help slow things down a bit.  Or dates...

Hope you feel better.
