Glutenated - Is Imodium The Answer?

I am just wondering if taking imodium is a good idea after being glutenated. It would sure help with the frequent bathroom trips, but it would also keep gluten in my system for longer. Any one tired it, or have alternative ways to manage the side effects of glutenation?

I use Immodium. The way it works is to slow the transit of food through the system--the gluten starts the reaction which sets off the uncomfortable symptoms and Immodium (or anything else, really) won't affect that once it's started.

I usually go with the Imodium multi symptom stuff that also helps with the other aspects without any problems. I also push the fluids like there was no tommorow.

There is another post on here about using a laxative to get the gluten out faster. I am thinking imodium is a more logical solution, though.

      Thanks rmj when I first rang up it was we can't do it without , but I talked to a lovely lady and she sorted it all out for me, so it pays to be persistent , I would have had to decline if I hadn't been given the water option too , so yes I'm glad too 😌

      I’m so glad they listened to your concerns!  I hope you get some answers from the MRI.

      Had my MRI today I didn't have to have the manitol with my allergy's , I just had a litre of water , they were great with my concerns , so let's see if anything comes of if will keep posted once I have results 👍

      Thank you ,it’s been a long road for me for having both now ,what upsets the most is that if they discovered that I also have cealiac earlier I would not have injested gluten if I was aware. Double whammy.
