Is a black tongue one of the side effects.  I went to urgent care for upset stomach from something that I ate. The doctor said the black tongue was from taking Imodium.  Now I think that was a wrong diagnosis. Basically is black tongue a side effect with this med?
Hello, You have a black tongue which seems to be due to the use of Imodium for diarrhea. Your doctor has suggested you right. I like to would suggest you the following:-You Chat Doctor.  -You should maintain proper oral hygiene. -Take a diet rich in vitamin B12 and folic acid supplement for a week.-If the condition doesn't get improve in ten days then consult oral pathologist for proper diagnosis and to rule to a condition like a mouth breathing or any underlying disease. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
