Lodium Capsules 2mg – Fast-Acting Relief for Running Stomach
Lodium is a trusted antidiarrheal medication in Nigeria, specifically formulated to provide rapid relief from the symptoms of acute diarrhea, commonly referred to as "running stomach." Each capsule contains 2mg of Loperamide Hydrochloride, which works by slowing down the movement of the gut. This allows your body to absorb more water and electrolytes, leading to firmer stools and a reduction in the frequency of bowel movements.
Why Use Lodium Capsules?
Diarrhea can be disruptive, dehydrating, and uncomfortable. Lodium helps restore your body's natural rhythm quickly. It is an effective solution for managing sudden bouts of diarrhea or traveler’s diarrhea, allowing you to get back to your daily routine without the constant urge to visit the toilet.
Key Benefits of Lodium
- Fast Relief: Starts working within 1 to 3 hours to control stooling.
- Effective Management: Reduces the urgency and frequency of bowel movements.
- Dehydration Prevention: Helps the intestines absorb necessary fluids and salts.
Dosage and Administration
For adults and children over 12 years:
- Initial dose: Take 2 capsules (4mg) after the first loose stool.
- Subsequent doses: Take 1 capsule (2mg) after each subsequent loose stool.
- Maximum dose: Do not exceed 8 capsules (16mg) in a 24-hour period.
Important Precautions
Do not use Lodium if you have bloody stools, a high fever, or severe abdominal pain. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, consult a GoMed pharmacist before use. If symptoms persist for more than 48 hours, seek medical advice immediately.
