@AnKing-Maintainers “Osmotic” and “secretory” refer to mechanisms of diarrhea, not its duration. Either can be acute or chronic depending on the underlying cause and exposure.
osmotic:
acute: laxative overuse
chronic: celiac disease
secretory:
acute: bacterial enterotoxin like Vibrio cholerae
chronic: VIPoma

I think for logistics and due diligence record keeping I think it’s still good to source this suggestion.
