Overview Cadotril 15mg Sachet

For infants and children experiencing acute diarrhea unresponsive to fluids and diet, the medication Loperamide (15mg sachet) is often prescribed. This medicine helps decrease stool water and electrolyte loss. Administer Loperamide orally, with or without food, ideally alongside an oral rehydration solution (ORS), typically three times daily. Dosage adjusts based on age and weight. If vomiting occurs within 30 minutes, repeat the dose once the child recovers. Concurrent hydration and a balanced diet are essential. Minor, temporary side effects like headache, rash, fever, respiratory issues, or constipation may occur, usually resolving spontaneously. Persistent or troubling side effects warrant immediate medical attention. Inform your child's doctor about any prior allergies, bowel obstructions, electrolyte imbalances, liver problems, or kidney issues before starting treatment.
