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.
Antibiotics, such as amoxicillin, can cause diarrhea. This could be a side effect of the medication or it could indicate a new infection. If you experience diarrhea that is watery, or has blood in it, contact your doctor immediately and do not take any medication to stop the diarrhea unless otherwise instructed.
