Apparently, bismuth subsalicylate has been added only in the last few years, so vets might not know that.

The only adverse effect with Immodium I could find researching was excitability in some cats.
You can purchase kaopectate without the subsalicylate, just look on pet supply sites such as: http://www.revivalanimal.com/Pet-Pectillin.html

The only thing with boiled chicken and rice is...the taurine and other supplements are going to be very important . Just getting the cat on a food that they like(grain and gluten free) and not keep changing the diet week after week is going to make a big difference.
This is a recipe for Slippery Elm Bark which is a diarrhea remedy highly recommended on the holisticat forum I belong to. It is also used for diarrhea in human babies.
SEB Gruel Recipe:
1/2 tsp (2.5 g) SEB powder from capsules
OR
1/4 tsp (1.2 g) SEB bulk powder (this is from bulk foods section of health food stores & is denser than powder from caps)
2 Tbsp (28 ml) boiled water
Pour SEB powder into a clean glass jar, then pour in the boiling water. Stir to mix until thickened or allow to stand for 30 minutes, then shake covered jar. Cover & refrigerate after each use. Discard after 3-5 days.
Dosage:
Give kitty 3-5 cc's via syringe or dropper 2-3 times/day. Ideally, allow 30 minutes between feeding/meds.
Common uses - constipation, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, bloating, and stomach acidity.
