Imodium Dual Action Relief tablets is a medicine which is used to treat sudden short-lived (acute) attacks of diarrhoea and calm additional abdominal discomfort such as cramps, wind and bloating.
The tablets contain loperamide hydrochloride, which helps reduce diarrhoea by slowing down an overactive bowel, which helps the body to absorb water and salts from the bowel. The tablets also contain simeticone, which is an anti-foaming agent that breaks up trapped wind in the bowel that causes cramps and bloating.
This medicine is for use in adults and children aged 12 years and over.
Common side-effects include: headache,feeling sick, a change in the way some things taste, drowsiness, dizziness, weakness, constipation, vomiting, indigestion, wind. Side effects may vary from one person to the next, as with any product. You should always read the manufacturer’s Information Leaflet before using this or any other product.
