Imodium Original 2mg Capsules provide effective relief from sudden, short-lived (acute) diarrhoea and diarrhoea associated with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) diagnosed by a doctor. Each capsule contains 2mg of loperamide hydrochloride, which works by slowing down bowel movements, helping to restore the body's natural rhythm and allowing for better absorption of fluids and nutrients.

This fast-acting formula typically works within one hour, offering up to 8 hours of relief. Imodium Original is suitable for adults and children aged 12 years and over, making it a reliable choice for managing unexpected bouts of diarrhoea.

  • Active Ingredient: Loperamide hydrochloride 2mg per capsule.
  • Other Ingredients: Lactose, maize starch, talc, magnesium stearate, gelatin, titanium dioxide (E171), quinoline yellow (E104), indigo carmine (E132), and printing ink.
Please refer to patient information leaflet.

Adults and children over 12 years:

  • Acute diarrhoea: Take two capsules initially, followed by one capsule after each loose stool. Do not exceed six capsules in 24 hours.
  • IBS-related diarrhoea: After initial diagnosis by a doctor, take two capsules to start, then one capsule after each loose stool, up to a maximum of six capsules per day.

Children under 12 years: Not recommended.

Method of administration: Swallow capsules whole with water.

If symptoms persist for more than 48 hours, consult your doctor.

  • Do not exceed the recommended dose.
  • Not suitable for children under 12 years.
  • Consult your doctor before use if you have liver disease, or if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
