miltefosine and Diarrhea

miltefosine has been researched along with Diarrhea in 3 studies

miltefosine: hexadecyl phosphocholine derivative of cisplatin; did not substantially activate HIV long terminal repeat; less toxic than cisplatin
miltefosine : A phospholipid that is the hexadecyl monoester of phosphocholine.

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.
