For diarrhoea associated with irritable bowel syndrome which has been diagnosed by a doctor
Adults only (18 years and over): Take two tablets to start with, followed by one tablet after each loose bowel motion, or as previously directed by your doctor. Don't take more than 6 tablets in 24 hours. You can take this medicine for up to 2 weeks for repeated attacks, but don’t take for any one attack lasting longer than 48 hours.

Hazards and Cautions

Do not take more medicine than the label tells you to.
Do not take more than directed.
Loperamide works mainly on the gut but too much can cause serious heart problems and have opioid effects.
