I have diarrhea and I am breastfeeding. Can I take Imodium?

It is not recommended to take Imodium in this situation, as diarrhea is your body's way of getting rid of the pathogen causing the symptoms. It is important to address the symptoms quickly to prevent dehydration, especially while breastfeeding. Consider getting probiotics with at least 7 billion live strains per capsule to help alleviate the symptoms.
