Imodium IBS Relief Treatment And Diarrhoea Capsules, 6 Capsules
Imodium IBS Relief Treatment And Diarrhoea Capsules are used to treat two types of diarrhoea. The two types have different age limits
For the symptomatic treatment of acute diarrhoea in adults and children aged 12 years and over.
For the symptomatic treatment of acute episodes of diarrhoea associated with Irritable Bowel Syndrome in adults aged 18 years and over following initial diagnosis by a 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 anyone attack lasts continuously for longer than 48 hours, talk to your doctor
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.
The capsules 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.
What is Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)?
Irritable Bowel Syndrome is often just called ‘IBS’. Although the precise cause is unknown, the muscles of the bowel appear to be very sensitive to things like:
Stress, eating and drinking habits
Food allergies or intolerances
Stimulants such as coffee
Hormonal factors
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a common condition that affects the digestive system.
It’s usually a lifelong problem. It can be very frustrating to live with and can have a big impact on your everyday life.
There’s no cure, but diet changes and medicines can often help control the symptoms.
The exact cause is unknown – it’s been linked to things like food passing through your gut too quickly or too slowly, oversensitive nerves in your gut, stress and a family history of IBS.
Such things can trigger painful abdominal cramps or spasms if you have a sensitive bowel. You may also feel bloated, with excess wind and abdominal discomfort. Sometimes IBS can include diarrhoea or constipation.
