Imodium Syrup 100ml is indicated for the treatment of sudden short-lived (acute) attacks of diarrhoea in adults and children over 4 years. And also for the treatment of long-lasting (chronic) diarrhoea in adults. Imodium syrup contains loperamide hydrochloride. It belongs to a group of medicines which helps reduce diarrhoea by slowing down an overactive bowel. It also helps the body to absorb more water and salts from the bowel.
Younger children (ages 2–5 years) should only take the liquid form of Imodium. Children who are older than 6 years may take the capsules or tablets as well. If your child can’t swallow a capsule, you can open the capsule and sprinkle it on food. The food should be something that the medication can mix with, such as applesauce.
The dosage of Imodium that you give your child should be based on your child’s weight or age. You can use the following table as a guide, but it’s better to ask your pharmacist or child’s doctor for a specific dosage.
