Imodium Classic Capsules – Fast Relief from Diarrhoea

Imodium Classic Capsules are designed to provide fast and effective relief from sudden and long-lasting diarrhoea in adults and children over the age of 12. They are also suitable for managing diarrhoea associated with medically diagnosed Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) in adults aged 18 and over. These capsules contain loperamide hydrochloride, a powerful active ingredient that helps slow down an overactive bowel, allowing the body to absorb more water and salts, thus reducing diarrhoea symptoms.
