I have had really bad D the last couple of days, and this morning I HAD to take my mother to the ER, so I took two immodium on top of the bentyl (which doesnt seem to do much anyway), and it did help, but I'm really afraid now that I'm going to pay for it.

Some of the worst pain I had in the last few years was after taking immodium. I'm scared.:eek:
 
I get the same think Mrs. Vr. It's very un-fun. I hope you're feeling alright!

I try to avoid immodium because of the cramps I get from it sometimes. I took one tonight though, I figured diarrhea and swing dancing class wouldn't mix well. ;)
 
Well, Im not comfortable, but it's not that horrible pain like I had those couple of times. Swing dancing sounds fun, btw!
 
Immodium AD is often found in my tackle box when going fishing, theres no fear worse than having an attack out there... and yes.. I do pay for it after 2-3 days when it finally wears off....
 
I take Immodium (well, generic, which is loperamide) AND Bentyl (dicyclomine, generic) all the time, several times a day, and it simply slows the diarrhea down, still have that and urgency, just a bit less severe. I wish they made more powerful anti-diarrheal meds though, and I think they do, I am having some research into finding the name of one I've heard of that someone took. I also tried Lomotil and it was about as good or so as Bentyl or Loperamide...
