description We present the case of a 54-year-old man with severe acute diarrhea during alcohol withdrawal, despite special feeding, correction of vitamin deficiencies, and protection of the gastrointestinal mucosa.

We recommend that patient’s bowel movements should be carefully observed during alcohol withdrawal, even during hospitalization.
