Chronic diarrhea affects approximately 6% to 7% of adults in the US, with more than 90% of cases having a noninfectious etiology. The review highlights the common causes, including IBS-D and functional diarrhea, and discusses the evaluation methods for chronic diarrhea, including serological and stool testing. It also addresses conditions such as celiac disease and small intestinal bacterial overgrowth, which can contribute to chronic diarrhea.
