Any harm from Immodium?

Is there any harm from giving a dog Immodium when they don't really need it? Someone in the house is sick and they keep having diarrhea when I'm not looking. I've done bum checks and Clyde seems to look the most "responsible." I've ruled Lucy out just by sheer volume (since there's some solid mixed) so it's between the boys. I'm 99% sure it's him but would it hurt Bear if I gave him one just to be safe?

I don't *think* komondors have the mdr1 gene that causes sensitivity like it can for collies, and related breeds. I'd check with someone who knows about koms though....
to be on the safe side, I've always used Pepto.
You guys are always faster than the Kom board so I covered both bases and asked both. Of course, you guys came in first!

The culprit did turn out to be Clyde so, luckily, I have the time to wait for the Kom people to answer.

Thanks for the replies.
What did good ole Clyde get into? Is he back to normal? Did you have the same type of poopie explosion that I had?? 8O
I have no idea-- nothing different. He looked pretty mopey this morning so I'm gonna go home early to check on him. I really hope I don't have any "gifts" waiting for me...
Poor Clyde!
