One item to check out is their anti-diarrheal (under the "Quality Plus" brand). For 88 cents you get 12 caplets that contain the SAME medicine as Immodium (Loperamide HCL 2 mg!
This is a must have medicine at one tenth the price.
I have Immodium in all my first aid kits.

Thanks for the tip.
BTW I would also recommend a product similar to Kaopectate.
IIRC Loperamide (Immodium) works by reducing bowel contractions. Thus, if your diarrhea is caused by food poisoning (and the body is trying to rid itself of toxins), the diarrhea may return, after the Immodium wears off. (I've experienced this.)
Koapectate bonds with the stool, thickening it. While it isn't as fast acting as Immodium, the chance of possibly prolonging the diarrhea is much less.
Which is why I keep both in stock.
Also, in a pinch, apple vinegar can help reduce the symptoms of diarrhea. (As I learned, when I once had the runs, was out of immodium/kaopectate, and didn't DARE risk going to the store.)
