Imodium Classic 2mg Capsules – Can Stop Diarrhoea Within One Hour – Anti Diarrhoea Capsules –  18 Capsules

Imodium Classic 2mg Capsules help restore your body’s natural rhythm, by providing effective relief from diarrhoea symptoms. The easy-to-swallow capsules use a trusted formula that has proven to provide diarrhoea relief for over 40 years.

The diarrhoea medicine contains loperamide hydrochloride which helps reduce diarrhoea by slowing down an overactive bowel, helping to return it to its normal rhythm. This lowers the number of times you’ll have to visit the bathroom and provides your body with the opportunity to consume the water and additives which are typically lost when you have diarrhoea. This helps to restore the absorption of fluids into your body to restore your natural balance.

Use Imodium Original to help stop diarrhoea within just one hour and restore your body’s harmony gently.

Use of Imodium Original Loperamide 2mg for Short Term Diarrhoea and IBS Diarrhoea, this medication can help reduce your symptoms and lessen the number of times you will need to visit the bathroom. The capsules contain loperamide hydrochloride, a substance that helps reduce diarrhoea by slowing down an overactive bowel. This allows water and salts that are usually lost in diarrhoea to be absorbed by the body.

What is diarrhoea and why do I get it?

Diarrhoea are common in adults, children and babies. They’re often caused by a stomach bug. They can be really uncomfortable and unpleasant, but fortunately, it isn’t usually something to worry about and, more often than not, it goes away in a few days. Some of the possible causes of diarrhoea include:

  • A food intolerance

  • A food allergy

  • Food poisoning

  • Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)

  • A viral infection, such as norovirus.

  • A bacterial infection, such as E.coli

  • A reaction to a medication

  • A bowel or intestinal disease

  • Coeliac disease

Importance Rehydration therapy when you have Diarrhoea

Your body can lose large amounts of fluids and salts when you have diarrhoea. You need to replace the fluid by drinking more liquid than usual. Ask your pharmacist about rehydration therapy to replace lost salts. This is especially important for children and frail or older people

How does Imodium Classic 2mg Capsules work?

This medicine contains Loperamide Hydrochloride which belongs to a group of medicines called antidiarrhoeals, which act to relieve the symptoms of sudden, short term diarrhoea (“acute” diarrhoea). It works by making the stools (“poo”) more solid and less frequent.

It can be used to relieve short term diarrhoea in adults and children aged 12 years and over.

It can also be used by adults of 18 years and over who have irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), which has been previously diagnosed by a doctor, to relieve short term diarrhoea associated with it.
