Imodium instants

5 replies

I had a whole afternoon planned yesterday with my friends and 10 minutes before I left I suddenly had diarrhoea. I panicked and I didn’t want to cancel as I felt totally fine otherwise and was all ready to go etc.

I found some Imodium instants that I had and took 2. I then went to the loo again so took 1 more and then when I left the house I thought I was getting stomach ache so I took another 1. They did the trick and I was absolutely fine for the rest of the day.

However obviously now I am probably going to be bunged up for days! Do you think it’s a wise idea to take a laxative? Or try and eat lots of fibre and drink water so I go naturally?

Don't take a laxative just wait. If it's a bug you might have just delayed the inevitable to be honest.

4 immodium in one go. Good grief. I'd be doing whatever I could to get it out again!

Drink plenty of water/fluid, eat a healthy diet and let your body sort itself out

just wait and see what happens don't take laxatives just eat and drink as normal and let things go back to working how it usually works.
