What Causes Abdominal Bloating After Taking Albendazole?

It is very surprising that you are so attentive and caring your clients. I love Imodium because it works very good. Three days ago, I took 2 tabs of Albenza 200 mg. (Albentazol, I mean.) Its announced side effects do not include diarrhea, but I have had lots of gas build-up and almost every 5-6 hours, I have had gaseous wet (unformed) stools, not much quantity. So, I took just one tab. of 2 mg. Imodium, instead of initial 2 tabs of 4 mg, because I do not have diarrhea but a little set stuff with logs of gas. If you find the time, your comment given me be very highly appreciate. Especially whether I have to begin with 2 tabs of 2 mg Imodium. Thank you very much and God bless you! God bless you, any physician or specialist whom I have not at all considered or thought of.
