Application
Diarrhea Inhibitor HTP Loperamide HCl capsules are used for acute or chronic diarrhea in adults and children 8 years and older. Acute diarrhea starts suddenly and is usually over within a week. Chronic diarrhea is prolonged. This drug is used to treat the diarrhea itself. It does not treat the cause of the diarrhea. If the cause of the diarrhea is known, this cause should be treated (also).
Does acute diarrhea not subside after 2 days, or does it even get worse? If so, contact your doctor.
Usage:
For adults and children over 8 years of age.

Initial dose: 1 capsule.
Maintenance dose: If thin stools persist, take one capsule every 2 hours (maximum 3 capsules per 20 kg body weight per day = 24 hours).

With chronic diarrhea, the dose should be adjusted until a stool as normal as possible is produced. It is recommended to check from time to time whether the dose can be reduced and the treatment possibly discontinued.
Adults:
Initial dose: 2 capsules per day (= 24 hours).
Maintenance dose: Then take 1-6 capsules per day until a stool is produced as normal as possible (maximum 8 capsules per day = 24 hours).
