Diarrhea
"Diarrhea is a symptom of disease, not a disease by itself. It is important to treat the underlying cause (e.g., Crohn&#039;s, IBS, cancer, etc.) not just the symptoms. Opium tincture should be used only as a last resort and for a short period of time (1-2 weeks max). I have taken this medication off-and-on over the past decade, but only when everything else fails and I have to travel. It is very effective at stopping diarrhea."
