Chronic diarrhea is a complex and common problem faced by primary care clinicians. Its causes can range from the common and relatively benign excessive juice consumption to the more alarming inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). This paper will review the definition and etiology of chronic diarrhea and aims to provide a simple approach to its diagnosis and

Viral diarrhea is a frequent, self-limited illness that may occur sporadically or in epidemic fashion. Nosocomial outbreaks have been reported. Rotavirus and Norwalk virus are the two most important agents causing this disease. Clinical illness is usually mild but may be quite severe in selected infants or elderly or debilitated persons.

Current Gastroenterology Reports, 1999
Diarrhea, defined as loose stools, occurs when the intestine does not complete absorption of electrolytes and water from luminal contents. This can happen when a nonabsorbable, osmotically active substance is ingested ("osmotic diarrhea") or when electrolyte absorption is impaired ("secretory diarrhea"). Most cases of acute and chronic diarrhea are due

Functional diarrhea occurs as part of the irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and as an isolated symptom as functional (painless) diarrhea. Progress has been made in defining these disorders and in identifying new mechanisms involved in symptom production. A strong link exists between intestinal infection and IBS, as is the role of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT)

Patients presenting to the emergency department with diarrhea should be evaluated for infectious causes. Information obtained from the history and physical examination should be used in deciding whether symptomatic treatment alone is sufficient or whether the patient's stool should be examined for pathogens.
