Cosas que me hubiera gustado saber en la escuela de Medicina: “El carácter de las heces, incluyendo olor, flotación en el inodoro, y el color (ademas del rojo de la sangre o el negro de la melena) no es útil en la evaluación del paciente con diarrea aguda” 10.1056/NEJMra1301069

@DrewCamps @IDPittStop @idpharmd I don’t know of one off-hand. Would check pubmed. Check location of absorption for the drug in question, if you can find it. Maybe read up on causes of diarrhea. I like this diarrhea article FWIW. https://t.co/3CsDYOPG42
