Hi and thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. My favorite go to's for chronic diarrhea are diet change-hills science diet ID feline is probably my favorite-probiotics like proviable-a good routine deworming-and then occasionally a low dose of prednisilone just to keep chronic inflammation down at its very worst. I hope this helps!
