Description
IMODIUM® Instant Melts are used to treat two types of diarrhoea. The two types have different age limits.
Short-term diarrhoea
– For adults and children aged 12 and over.
– To treat attacks that last up to 48 hours.
-If your attack lasts longer than 48 hours, talk to your doctor.
IBS diarrhoea
-For adults and young people aged 18 and over who have been diagnosed with IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome).
-To treat attacks that last up to 48 hours.
-You can use this medicine for up to 2 weeks for repeated attacks, but if any one attack lasts continuously for longer than 48 hours, talk to your doctor.
The tablets 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.
