When you have diarrhea:

You will lose a lot of fluids. Therefore, drink plenty of clear fluids, water, unsweetened juices, or clear soups.
Do not drink alcohol or milk and avoid fruit, green vegetables, and spicy or fatty foods. These items tend to aggravate diarrhea.

Adults (12 years and older): Take 30 ml oral solution (4 mg) initially and 15 ml oral solution every time you have a loose bowel movement, to a maximum of 120 ml oral solution (16 mg) per day. Stop use if you have a solid or hard stool or if you go for 24 hours without a bowel movement.

You should not use Imodium if you have any of the following conditions:

If you are constipated or your abdomen is swollen or have abdominal pain;

If you have a bacterial infection in your digestive system, or suspect food poisoning due to bacterial contamination;

If you have an inflammation of the lower bowel;

If you are taking prescription drugs that may cause constipation, such as anti-psychotic and anti-depressant medications;

If you know you are sensitive to one of the ingredients or to any other component of this formulation;

If in doubt, ask your pharmacist or doctor for advice.

Before you use Imodium talk to your doctor or pharmacist if you:

Are pregnant or nursing a baby. Imodium is not recommended for nursing mothers, because small amounts of loperamide can end up in your milk;

Stop use and see your doctor or pharmacist if:

Diarrhea gets worse, lasts longer than 48 hours, or you get any unusual symptoms;
You are infected with HIV and you have any signs of abdominal swelling or bulging.

Although Imodium stops diarrhea, it will not treat the cause of it. Whenever possible, the cause of diarrhea should also be treated. Tiredness, dizziness, or drowsiness may occur in the setting of diarrheal symptoms treated with loperamide. Therefore, it is advisable to use caution when driving a car or operating machinery.
