Imodium Plus new name is Imodium Dual Action Relief
Imodium Plus Comfort works by restoring your bowel to its normal rhythm. This helps to restore the absorption of fluids into your body. It also helps to soothe the discomfort of painful cramps.
IMODIUM® Plus Comfort tablets work to quickly relieve diarrhoea within 1 hour, while also soothing painful cramps, uncomfortable bloating and embarrassing wind.
Used to treat short-lived bouts of diarrhoea, the tablets contain an additional ingredient called Simeticone, which helps ease excess gas in the gut and relieve painful accompanying symptoms.
If you’re struck by a bout of diarrhoea, often you may find you are suffering from other symptoms alongside it. Imodium Plus caplets have a dual-action formula that helps to effectively relieve both the diarrhoea itself and the associated bloating, cramps and wind, providing complete relief from the discomfort of a stomach upset.
How it works
Imodium Plus 2mg caplets contains 2 active ingredients, loperamide hydrochloride and simethicone. Both these ingredients work together to slow the muscular contractions of the intestine and reduce the speed of the contents being pushed through the intestine, allowing for more water to be reabsorbed back into the body. Resulting in firmer stools that are passed less frequently.
What is diarrhoea and why do I get it?
Diarrhoeaare common in adults, children and babies. They’re often caused by a stomach bug. They can be really uncomfortable and unpleasant, but fortunately, it isn’t usually something to worry about and, more often than not, it goes away in a few days. Some of the possible causes of diarrhoea include:
A food intolerance
A food allergy
Food poisoning
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)
A viral infection, such as norovirus.
A bacterial infection, such as E.coli
A reaction to a medication
A bowel or intestinal disease
Coeliac disease
Importance Rehydration therapy when you have Diarrhoea
Your body can lose large amounts of fluids and salts when you have diarrhoea. You need to replace the fluid by drinking more liquid than usual. Ask your pharmacist about rehydration therapy to replace lost salts. This is especially important for children and frail or older people
