How do you not get diarrhea after drinking alcohol?

Alcohol can cause diarrhea in some people because it relaxes the muscles in the digestive system. This can cause food to move too quickly through the intestines which can lead to diarrhea.

Here are some tips for avoiding diarrhea after drinking alcohol:

- Drink plenty of water. Alcohol can dehydrate you which can make diarrhea worse.

- Eat a light meal before drinking alcohol. This can help to slow down the absorption of alcohol into the bloodstream.

- Avoid sugary drinks and cocktails. These drinks can further irritate the digestive system and make diarrhea more likely.

-If you do experience diarrhea after drinking alcohol you should drink plenty of fluids to stay hydrated and eat bland foods like rice or bananas. You can also take over-the-counter anti-diarrhea medication.

If diarrhea persists for more than 2 days, you should see a doctor.
