Overview Diarmak 2mg Tablet

Loperamide 2mg tablets effectively manage diarrhea symptoms. However, avoid use if your diarrhea includes blood (dysentery). Take this medication, with or without food, as prescribed by your physician, completing the full course of treatment. Premature discontinuation may lead to symptom recurrence and condition exacerbation. Inform your doctor of all other medications you are taking, as interactions are possible. Common side effects include headache, nausea, and constipation; these are typically transient. Report any concerning side effects immediately. Drowsiness may occur; avoid driving or activities requiring alertness until its effects are known. Alcohol consumption should be avoided due to potential increased sleepiness. Since diarrhea can dehydrate and disrupt electrolyte balance, maintain adequate fluid intake. This medication is contraindicated if you experience bloody stools or severe constipation.
