How Can Pneumonia And Diarrhea Be Treated?

I have pneumonia and with that I have diarrhea. Everytime I go then it seems that there s some still left but won t come all the way out in one sitting. I thought about taking a laxative to help get rid of the diarrhea part. Is it safe to do that or should I just let it take its own course?
