"I have really bad anxiety, and it comes with diarrhea every time! So, as soon as I heard of this, I immediately went to the store and bought it! It works miracles, and now I am a little less anxious about having an accident in public."

"I get diarrhea all the time since I was 12 or 13. I take a lot of meds, and a lot of food I can no longer eat. This medicine works right away for me. I am now 67 yrs old. I only use it if the diarrhea lasts for more than two days."

"This stuff works well... maybe a little too well. I used it multiple times daily for a few weeks (mostly because I am just paranoid) and I ended up severely and dangerously constipated. I am having to get a colonic to remove the stool that has built up inside of me as a result of chronic use of this drug. All in all, it really does work, but you should seriously limit how often you take it. It will make you extremely constipated and painfully bloated if you overdo it. Don’t make the same mistake I did. 5/10 rating for effectiveness, but bad side effects when used long term."

"Made my symptoms much worse. Every time I took it, I'd get diarrhea immediately after. Sometimes it would clear up afterward, sometimes it wouldn't. I took it before bed, and it gave me loose stool in my sleep (after I had already gone multiple times after taking it)."

"I had a torn hole in my colon from this, which needed surgery to repair. Over two months to recover. Expensive. Very dangerous. This should not be an over-the-counter purchase, it should be only by doctor orders."

"Best over the counter that really works for chronic or IBS quickly! The generic brand is the best priced and works just as well as the name brand for me."
