Are Imodium Instants better than loperamide?
I usually buy unbranded loperamide for diarrhoea but have noticed several people mentioning Imodium Instants. Looking at the packet, they don`t seem to be much different from Loperamide and are a lot more expensive. I wondered if really do work faster or is it just a marketing ploy?

Into TRITON II - and awaaay we go!
OK, 2 weeks into the trial. 75% of participants get nausea, vomiting. I never do anything the way others do so none of that for me. Instead constipation with stool as hard as concrete. Miralax, senokot magnesium citrate, Gavrilate. Nothing. So into the ER where the X-ray shows "you're full of it

Sodium Flouride PET/CT Scan Cost
My husband is coming up on his last two rounds of Docetaxel, and then it's time for his follow-up scan to see how well the chemo worked. Well, called to make the appointment, and I was told that Medicare no longer pays for that particular scan. His MO feels it's very important to compare apples-to-apples

College student with IBSC. Please help
So I went to a GI doctor today and they diagnosed me with IBS-C. My doctor told me to take 8-10 FL oz of magnesium citrate today and then start Linzess tomorrow. I am also now on low fodmap diet. Should I be considered that I haven’t had a bowel movement even from taking this high intensity laxative

Can I give a little hope?
My partner was diagnosed with alcohol-related decompensated cirrhosis in October 2017 after having been rushed to A&E, vomiting blood and not being able to breathe due to severe ascites. The emergency doctor was so concerned about his prognosis that she asked that I contact his daughters to come to

Effective Production of Sorbitol and Mannitol from Sugars Catalyzed by Ni Nanoparticles Supported on Aluminium Hydroxide - Merck & Teva
The recent issues with levothyroxine products that contain mannitol (that from Merck and also at least the UK-version of Teva's levothyroxine) is interesting and deeply concerning. I noticed mention in the French thyroid websites of the presence of nanoparticles of nickel and of aluminium - which is

When food is medicine, what makes a decent snack?
As a patient, I approach NAFLD and NASH with a food as medicine strategy. I believe in the idea that with a damaged organ making it work as little as possible is the only rational plan. For now, let's assume that you are eating a liver friendly diet but what do you do for those in-between times. A snack
