Definition Diarrhea may be produced by many mechanisms.
Some medications produce diarrhea.
Other drugs may be toxic to the colon. Any diarrhea produced by drugs is a drug-induced diarrhea, but the diarrhea is of concern when it is a side effect or complication of the drug rather than a wanted effect.
