Loperamide is a medicine that can help if you have acute diarrhoea. Acute diarrhoea in adults starts suddenly and in most cases eases within a few days. The main treatment is to have lots to drink to prevent dehydration. The most common cause of acute diarrhoea is an infection. Many bacteria, viruses, and other germs can cause diarrhoea. In most cases the diarrhoea settles as your body's immune system clears the infection. Antidiarrhoeal medicines like loperamide may not be necessary; however, they can be helpful if you wish to reduce the number of trips that you need to make to the toilet. Most people only need to take loperamide for a day or so.
Loperamide is also used to reduce the amount of stool in people who have an ileostomy (re-routing of the bowel through a surgical opening in the stomach).
Uses of Loperamide Capsules:
- It is used to treat diarrhea.
- It is used to lower ostomy output.
The dose of Loperamide Hydrochloride that you will need will depend on whether your diarrhoea is a sudden, short-lived attack (acute) or a long-lasting condition (chronic).
Acute diarrhoeaAdults: take two capsules to begin with and then 1 capsule after each episode of diarrhoea for up to 5 days. Never take more than 8 capsules in any 24 hour period.
Children aged 9-12 years: take one capsule 4 times daily until diarrhoea is controlled or for up to 5 days. Never take more than this dose.
Children aged 4-8 years: Not recommended for use in children aged 4-8 years. Your doctor will prescribe a suitable alternative.
Chronic diarrhoeaAdults only: your doctor will tell you how much Loperamide Hydrochloride to take. The initial dose will probably be between two and four capsules per day taken in divided doses, but will depend on each individual's needs. When your doctor is satisfied that you are receiving the daily dose that best suits you, he or she will probably suggest that the frequency at which you take Loperamide Hydrochloride is twice a day. Never take more than 8 capsules in any 24 hour period.
Children: NOT recommended.
