Suggest Home Remedy For Diarrhea While Having End Stage Renal Disease
Hi, My mom is 80 years old and has end stage renal disease. She has been having a little diarrhea but not that much. Is there a home remedy that I can give to her just for tonight ? she has been going to the bathroom so often today, this is just until her doctor appointment tomorrow. To ease the frustration...Thanks Judy

Hi,
Thank you for your query. I can understand your concerns.
you can give her tablet Racecadotril 100 mg now and if required repeat 100 mg after 08 hours till you see your physician. To eat yogurt . These help to restore healthy levels of the helpful bacteria in your intestine and control diarrhoea. To drink oral rehydration solutions each time she has diarrhoea.
