I Am Having Diarrhea Took Immodium But Did Not Help. What Medication Should I Take ?

Hi, I vomited 2 nights ago. I also had the chills and then the sweats later the same night. When I woke up (that night) I went to the bathroom and I had diarrhea . 24 hours later, I had a 100% of my energy back, no fevers, no chills/sweat or headaches but I still have diarrhea. I took Immodium today and that didn t help. I ve had diarrhea for 48 hours ....... any suggestions??
