I discovered recently that my store-brand Sudafed generic contains
lactose - because I was taking it regularly, two or three tablets a
day, and having my lactose-induced diarrhea daily.  Knowing I was
taking in no lactose from other sources, I looked at the makeup of the
pills, and there it is.  Stopping the pills stopped the diarrhea.  They
may say there's not enough to do any damage, but evidence (for me at
least) points to the contrary.
