Acute diarrhoea is often caused by a “stomach bug”, but it can also be caused by an underlying condition and drugs. “Stomach bug” is a general term that is commonly used to describe a range of gastrointestinal illnesses that can cause symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, abdominal pain, and cramping. A stomach bug is not a medical diagnosis but rather a common term used to refer to a variety of illnesses, including viral and bacterial infections. Some common examples of stomach bugs include norovirus, rotavirus, and food poisoning (bacterial infection). These capsules can be taken by adults and children from the age of 12 years. However, diarrhoea is a common symptom of a number of serious stomach and bowel conditions and therefore some people should not take this medicine or should seek the advice of their pharmacist or doctor first. Occasionally patients with a colostomy (stoma) need a higher dose. Only take a higher dose if your doctor tells you to.

It works by reducing the contractions of the intestinal muscles, which can help to slow down the movement of stools through the intestines, allowing the body more time to absorb water and nutrients from the food. capsules or tablets, or 16 spoonfuls of liquid (5ml each), if you have a prescription or buy loperamide from a pharmacy

6. How to cope with side effects of loperamide

Travellers’ diarrhoea can often be prevented by practising good hygiene and food safety practices, such as washing hands frequently with soap and water, avoiding tap water, ice, and raw or undercooked foods, and choosing bottled water and food that has been cooked thoroughly. Whenever an underlying aetiology can be determined, specific treatment should be given when appropriate. The priority in acute diarrhoea is the prevention or reversal of fluid and electrolyte depletion. This is particularly important in young children and in frail and elderly patients with acute diarrhoea. Use of this medicine does not preclude the administration of appropriate fluid and electrolyte replacement therapy. Diphenoxylate works by slowing down the movement of stools through the intestines, which can help to reduce the frequency and severity of diarrhoea. It does this by binding to the opioid receptors in the gut, which can help to reduce the contractions of the intestinal muscles.
