Movement speeds up
During diarrhea, food and fluid may move through the intestines too quickly for enough water to be absorbed.
DBS LABS Anti-Diarrheal contains the same active ingredient and strength found in Imodium A-D® caplets—packed in a practical 200-count bottle for home and travel.
Loperamide HCl works locally in the digestive tract to slow intestinal movement. That gives the body more time to absorb water and can help make stools less loose and less frequent.
During diarrhea, food and fluid may move through the intestines too quickly for enough water to be absorbed.
Loperamide HCl 2 mg helps slow intestinal movement when taken according to the Drug Facts directions.
More transit time allows additional water absorption, helping reduce the frequency of loose stools.
Relief is only part of the plan. Diarrhea can cause fluid and electrolyte loss. Drink plenty of clear fluids and follow medical guidance for signs of dehydration. Read the NIDDK hydration guidance.
Start with the active ingredient and strength, then compare count, packaging and cost per caplet.
