alosetron and Diarrhea

alosetron has been researched along with Diarrhea in 39 studies

alosetron : A pyrido[4,3-b]indole compound having a 5-methyl-1H-imidazol-4-ylmethyl group at the 2-position.

Diarrhea: An increased liquidity or decreased consistency of FECES, such as running stool. Fecal consistency is related to the ratio of water-holding capacity of insoluble solids to total water, rather than the amount of water present. Diarrhea is not hyperdefecation or increased fecal weight.

Trial Outcomes

Association of Urgency Symptom and Rectal Sensitivity Testing.

Association of urgency symptom and rectal sensitivity will be evaluated by the mean change in the balloon pressure (measured in mmHg) that leads to first urge sensation to defecate, evaluated based on the visual analogue scale defined in the primary outcome measure. (NCT03462966)
Timeframe: After completing 14-day course of rifaximin.

Mean Change in the Balloon Volume (Measured in Cubic Centimeter) That Leads to First Urge to Defecate.

A 100-cubic centimeter visual analogue scale with verbal descriptors (0=no sensation, 20=first sensation, 40=first sense of urge, 60=normal urge to defecate, 80=severe urge to defecate, and 100=discomfort/pain) will be used to score evoked sensations. (NCT03462966)
