Cholestyramine Ou Imodium?

Bonjour un gastro m’a prescrit Cholestyramine après une colonoscopie sans m’expliquer. Ça fait 4 jours que je le prends pour la diarrhée. Ça semble vouloir fonctionner, mais je me questionne sur les effets secondaires. Je vois que ça nuit à l’absorption de vitamine, ça peut endommager les cheveux et les dents, ça baisse le cholestérol alors que mon cholestérol est beau … Imodium n’est-il pas moins dommage? Ceux qui l’ont pris pour la diarrhée, vous l’avez pris pendant combien de temps? Avez-vous des effets négatifs? J’ai un dose de 4 g, est-ce que ça me permet d’avoir moins d’effets secondaires?
