J a m e s W . «TH EN AN ATTACK of diarrhea ” occurs, the first thought is us ually to try to stop It before the in dividual becomes exhausted and loses too much fluid from his blood and tissues. What we forget is that something is present in the intestine that is causing the diarrhea, with its great increase in water from the lower bowel. This increase in wa ter formed in large intestine, is na ture’s method of washing out the substance causing the irritation and for this reason a powerful drug should not be used to stop the diar rhea and thus leave the irritating substance present in the bowel. As youngsters at home we were told that in an attack of diarrhea we were to eat no food for several hours, or skip one or two meals. This was good, but only half the treatment. As medical students we were taught to advise, or take, a good dose of Epsom salts which » would carry away the irritating substance, and then use two or three doses of bismuth subnitrate to “dry up” the intestine once the B a rto n irritating substance had been re moved. It is interesting to learn the meth od now used in simple diarrhea (not the severe type called dysentery), as described by Dr. Jackson Eto in "The Journal of the Missouri Medical Association.” The sugges tion for treatment of simple diar rhea in children is: (1) A short period of starvation: (2) ample liquids, by mouth if the patient can retain them without vomiting, un der the skin if not; (3) absorbents such as kaolin or barium sulfate, which not only absorb the liquids but "sweep out” the bowel of all mucous and wastes as they pass through it. Remember, this mild trea tm e n t- starvation, plenty of liquids and clay-like substances — is used in cases of simple diarrhea with no harmful organisms present. Dr. Eto points out that for severe infection of the bowel (dysentery), strepto mycin, potassium salts injected into a vein, and stay in hospital is the treatment necessary for a cure.
