Imodium 2Mg 6 Cap
Imodium is a medication used to treat acute and chronic diarrhea. It belongs to a class of drugs known as antidiarrheals, which work by reducing bowel movement, helping to decrease the frequency of bowel movements. It is commonly used to relieve symptoms resulting from diarrhea caused by gastrointestinal infections or consuming unsuitable foods.
Imodium (LOPERAMIDE) works by inhibiting the activity of smooth muscles in the intestines, leading to increased absorption of fluids and salts from the intestinal contents. This reduces bowel movement and increases the time food passes through the digestive system, helping to reduce diarrhea. It is considered effective in alleviating symptoms associated with diarrhea, helping patients regain their daily comfort. It is also used in some cases to relieve diarrhea caused by medications or chemotherapy.
