Celeste, Yes, that would be inconvenient.

Even with Imodium, you should check with your doctor. It can keep drugs in your body longer and could cause side effects.

Also, if you get something like Ecoli, Imodium will just make it worse. Instead of your body naturally purging you of a bacteria like that, it keeps it in the body.

This over-the-counter stuff isn't benign. Neither are supplements. It has to all be taken into consideration with your other meds and conditions by your primary doctor.

Or just roll the dice and hope you'll be okay.
