how to calm the bowel

hi
I take pentasa 4 gram a day and usually I go 3-4 to the toilet.
If i eat something that irritates my colon i flare and go alot more to the toilet
I take in flare like this 4 gram enema and i become normal after 3-4 days
What can i take to calm the bowel in this three days?.I work and this flare really bother me
I know that i should avoid food but sometimes i make mistakes
One week ago i ate pizza and after that i ran to the toilet all day
I dont want to take medicine like remicade or imuran for this flare because i am normal usually
I heard about imodium but didnt try this does it helps?

zinov, pizza kills me, too. The best way I've found to calm the bowel is to eat very easily digested foods. For me, that means yogurt, cream of wheat and Campell's chicken with rice soup. Like you said, you know that you should stay away from certain foods. It's hard, but if you want to calm your bowel quickly, that's the best bet I know about. Good luck.

quincy, what's the deal with artificial sweeteners?
