1 VICODIN, VICODIN ES, and VICODIN HP should not be used if you have breathing problems or a blocked bowel. 2  These drugs can cause breathing problems at high doses or in sensitive patients.
But recently same thing happen to me. I had also non stop liquid diarrhea. I did some research. Diarrhea is essentially caused by an imbalance or failure in the movement of the bowels, the secretion of feces or the absorption of water. So, these clever little anti-diarrhea pills work on all three degrees of this problem.
Diarrhea can be caused by a single factor or by a combination of factors, including: 1  Food allergies or intolerances. 2  A damaged mucosal lining (thin, delicate tissue lining the intestine) 3  Impaired digestion and absorption, resulting in very rapid food transit times through the gastrointestinal tract.
