What Are The Side Effects Of Questran?

Is there any real common bad side effects of taking Questran? Does it cause cancer down the road? I am considering talking to my doctor about using it for diarrhea problems that I have had since having my gallbladder out 15 years ago. Is there any other solution that works for post gallbladder problems and is this a common problem?
