Cholestyramine as an aid to management of prolonged diarrhoea in the hospital drip-room. Preliminary findings.

Two groups of children with diarrhoea of more than 7 days' duration were studied. While the length of stay in hospital of the two groups was similar, there was a significant improvement in the frequency and consistency of the stools of the children given cholestyramine. This improvement was also noted in children with positive stool cultures. Cholestyramine also plays an important role in reducing the number of children or intravenous therapy at any time.
