Is it ok to take two Lomotil if Imodium doesn't work?

Maybe I'm doing the wrong thing, but generally in the mornings I take two Imodium and if the D does not stop in an hour, I take one more. If I still am going, then I take two Lomotil, which usually stops everything in its tracks. Is this okay?

Sounds ok to me.I used to take 8 imodium every morning.If you can try to take imodium before an attack and you can also take some afterwards too.Imodium tends to work less well once the diarrhoea starts.
