I use immodium anytime I go out (up to 4 or 5 but she says I can use more if necessary). I use Lomotil if the diarrhea is very bad. I usually need only one dose of that. I take Metamucil twice a day. I eat a high protein, low carb diet and drink lots of water and zero calorie electrolyte drinks like Gatorade light and Powerade Zero.
