You know Hydromet is an anticholinergic and narcotic cough syrup ...Lomotil is an anticholinergic and opiate mostly indicated for diarrhea, but has other indications also. Many medications can have some of the same chemicals and be labeled for specific symptoms, but treat several symptoms. Like going to the drug store and going to the antihistamines section and buying Benadryl..then .going to the sleep aid isle and buying A sleep aid with diphenhydramine in it, when the two are the same...the active chemicals in Hydromet and Lomotil are different, but they act very similar....
We are trying Lomotil as of today for my Yogi who has CT if anyone is interested
...had quite a mix up on the dosage but got that straightened out...I hope we can all keep sharing about what is working and what isnt for our babies.
