Consumer:

Therapy with antiperistaltic agents should be administered with extreme caution in patients with hepatorenal disease or abnormal liver enzymes. Antiperistaltic agents are metabolized by the liver (diphenoxylate to an active form) and primarily excreted in the feces. Hepatic coma can be precipitated.
