Hi I'm 12weeks pregnant Tuesday and today I have got really bad diarrehea and was just wondering is it OK to take imodium?

Immodium is a pregnancy category (B) drug according to the 2007 Mosby's Nursing Drug Reference, meaning that there have not been any adverse reactions.

My drug reference says that it is okay.  But you really need to find out what is causing it.
