My pup recently had a case of diarrhea and my vet told me not to use Immodium. He only prescribes liquid Pepto-Bismol and ID dog food. I had always used Immodium on my other dogs and did not have a problem. I will admit that the Pepto really worked and it cleared up almost immediately.

Uhuummm..... I did not know that. So what does everybody else uses for quick anti-diarrhea medication? And.... someone I respect a lot told me to use Tylan on weaning puppies but what is the purpose of Tylan for adults? Thanks.
