Dear Mr./Ms.

My wife has scleroderma.

Now The big problem is the diarrhea.

Before the 2nd 10 Cleocin IV, She has diarrhea.

After the 2nd - 10 day Celocin IV (1 per day) last month,

she has more diarrhea

After she take Imodium, the diarrea stop.

but, if she don't take Imodium, the diarrhea begin again.

I wan't to know how to stop the diarrhea ?

The reason of diarrhea come from Scleroderma or Antibiotic Threapy or

Candida infection ?

I wan't to know the symptom of Candida and Treatment of it.

If you have any experience or information about Candida, please let

me know.

I wan't to know how to stop the diarrhea without Imodium .

I heard if she take Imodium too many days, It may be hurt her large

intestine.

Thank you in advance

Dear Yoon,

Your wife needs to stop the IV Cleocin immediately and discuss the diarrhea

problem with the doctor prescribing it. It might be a side effect of the

Cleocin.

I refer you to the Frequently Asked Questions section on www.rheumatic.org

for more information.

Dear YaeHo,

Diarrhea is often a consequence of taking antibiotics, which kill

beneficial bacteria in the intestine. The remedy is to take a probiotic to

replenish the intestinal bacteria.

In the U.S., probiotics are available in capsule form in the refrigerated

section of health food stores. Look for a brand that lists multiple types

of bacteria.

I have stopped taking probiotics in capsule form, except when traveling.

Instead, I now take two heaping tablespoons of live yogurt in the morning

and evening. Be sure that the yogurt provides " living cultures. " The yogurt

I am taking is French Village Nonfat Yogurt from Trader Joe's. It lists the

following cultures:

S. Thermophilus

L. Bulgaricus

L. Acidophilus and Bifidus

In the U.S., the National Yogurt Association (NYA) established its own

criteria for live and active culture yogurt in conjunction with its Live &

Active Culture seal program. In order for manufacturers to carry the seal,

refrigerated yogurt products must contain at least 100 million cultures per

gram at the time of manufacture, and frozen yogurt products must contain 10

million cultures per gram at the time of manufacture. This level was based

on a survey of leading research scientists involved in clinical studies of

the health attributes associated with live and active culture yogurt. The

Live & Active Culture seal to all yogurt manufacturers whose products, both

refrigerated or frozen, contain a significant level of live and active

cultures.

Sincerely, Harald
