Unfortunately it is illegal for us to advise doing this without seeing Raider in person. In addition, this may be the wrong treatment for the cause of his diarrhea. It could be caused by intestinal worms, GI illness, a sudden change in diet, eating something rotten, or a foreign body. I'd take him into a vet in the morning to have this treated.
