Dehydration help please

I just finished stage two of three in my journey for a JPouch.  I have a massive amount of liquid output from my loop ostomy- about 2,000cc.  I feel very dehydrated.  Sadly, I am allergic to Imodium and Lomotil (rare).  I am taking Tincture of Opium, but I get a little shortness of breath on it, but it works well on slowing my output.  Are there any other drugs folks are using to slow the ostomy output or my future JPouch, other than Imodium and Lomotil.  I am eating bowel slowing foods and Metamucil already - and have employed dietary agents.  Thanks so much.  Doug
