Pill interaction question

Crohn's Disease Forum

Help Support Crohn's Disease Forum:

There are no drug interactions as such that I am aware of but since Imodium is an antidiarrhoeal and Percocet can cause constipation you would have to watch when you combine the two that you don't cause yourself some major issues in that department. They have a similar effect on the bowel...they slow it down.

The meds will usually have a leaflet with them which tells you how you take them. This leaflet usually has a section about any precautions you should take including any other medications that you should avoid.

The immodium website says that it is unlikely to interact with other medications. I would be careful though since immodium is an anti -diarrhea medicine and could worsen any existing constipation. You may be better off using an antispasmodic such as busocpan
