aubagio and diarrhea

[Vinagirl]

Hi! I'm about to start Aubagio. Can anyone tell me about the side effect of diarrhea? Specifically, when it occurs, how often is it experienced and how to deal with it (pepto, loperamide)?

Thanks!

While occasional bouts of diarrhea are common and not cause for concern, diarrhea can become dangerous if it leads to severe dehydration. It can also signal an infection or a more serious health issue. Visit your doctor right away if you experience any of the following symptoms: Diarrhea that lasts more than two days.
