A friend reports using loperamide (Imodium) for continual diarrhea for a week since returning home from a vacation outside the country. Which is the nurse's best response?
 
  a. There are some other over-the-counter products available for diarrhea, such as Kaopectate (bismuth subsalicylate).
  b. I'd stop taking the Imodium and go in to see a health care provider immediately. You may have an infection in your intestinal tract.
  c. If you're not running a temperature, I wouldn't worry. That happens to many people when they travel.
  d. As long as you can drink plenty of fluids, I'm sure the diarrhea will go away once you're back in a normal routine.
