Loperamide 2 mg Capsules

What is Loperamide 2 mg Capsules?

Capsules used for the short-term relief of acute (sudden) diarrhoea in adults and children over 12. They help control the symptoms while your body recovers.

How does it help?

Loperamide acts on the muscles of the gut wall to slow down how quickly the bowel moves. This gives the body more time to absorb water, making stools firmer and reducing how often you need to go.

Key benefits

• Fast, effective relief of acute diarrhoea
• Reduces how often you need the toilet
• Convenient capsule form
• Useful for on-the-go and travel
• For adults and children over 12

Who should take care?

Always read the patient information leaflet before use. Not for children under 12. Don't use if you have blood in your stools or a high fever, and see a doctor if diarrhoea lasts more than 48 hours. Keep drinking plenty of fluids. Don't use if you're allergic to any of the ingredients. Speak to our pharmacist if you're pregnant or breastfeeding, taking other medicines, or have any ongoing health conditions. Our pharmacist checks every order before it's supplied.
