hydroxyindoleacetic acid and Diarrhea

hydroxyindoleacetic acid has been researched along with Diarrhea in 53 studies

(5-hydroxyindol-3-yl)acetic acid : A member of the class of indole-3-acetic acids that is indole-3-acetic acid substituted by a hydroxy group at C-5.

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

Change From Baseline in Abdominal Pain Averaged Across All Time-Points

Participants recorded abdominal pain in a daily diary. Participants evaluated the level of any abdominal pain using an 11-point numeric rating scale, where: 0=no pain to 10=worst pain ever experienced. The average daily abdominal pain was averaged over the 12-week period. A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement. (NCT02063659)
