I have diarrhea. What is the best medicine for diarrhea?

1 Answer

It depends on the diagnosis for the diarrhea.
For most causes, loperamide over-the-counter is effective, but a specific medicine may be available for the type of diarrhea that is occurring. For example, antibiotics for infectious diarrhea, eluxadoline for IBS with diarrhea, etc.
