So, does Dr Pepper cause diarrhea? For some people, yes. It’s not a medical guarantee, but it’s a well-known side effect for the caffeine-sensitive, the sugar-sensitive, and the sweetener-sensitive. It’s like your favorite roller coaster—thrilling, but you might get whiplash.
If you’ve had problems, try sipping it slowly, having it with food, or switching to a milder beverage. Or, you know, just accept your fate and keep a bathroom close. Live your life, just plan your exits.
At the end of the day, a Dr Pepper might make you run, but for many of us, it’s a run worth taking. Just maybe avoid it before a long drive, a job interview, or a first date. Trust me on this one. Your colon will thank you.
