Using imodium with an ileostomy
January 30, 2009One of the most important tools in managing your ileostomy is the wonder drug Imodium (or other stool thickeners). They greatly assist in managing your output and have virtually no side effects (not with me, at least). It’s one of the few medicines in my struggle with colitis that actually did anything for me.
Someday I’ll make a video about using Imodium with a j-pouch, once I learn more about when to use the medicine with my j-pouch.
Keep fighting,
