Benton, you must have read all the precautions. About anything you take will have similar warnings. Remember, the company lawyers are paid to cover all bases just in case some of their bretheren decide to sue the drug company. I don't know of anyone that ever had a problem with Lomotil.
It is great for what it was made for.

Silly me, what am I thinking. If the FDA were to approve water, it would probably come with similar warnings.

Oh man, you be right -- sometimes the cure is as bad as the ailment. My ex-wife was on high-dose Flagyl solid for 9 months. She was a miserable human. Fresh cheeses (like the mexican queso fresca we can get here) and mexican crema or unpasteurized yogurt helped a lot.
