Overview Permid 2mg Capsule

Loperamide 2mg capsules treat diarrhea. This medication is contraindicated for patients experiencing dysentery (bloody diarrhea). Administer Loperamide 2mg capsules with or without food, following your doctor's prescribed dosage and duration. Complete the full course of treatment as directed; premature discontinuation may lead to symptom recurrence and condition exacerbation. Inform your physician of all other medications you are currently using, as interactions may occur. Common side effects include headache, nausea, and constipation – generally transient and self-limiting. Report any concerning side effects immediately to your doctor. Drowsiness is possible; avoid driving or activities requiring alertness until the effects are known. Alcohol consumption should be avoided due to potential increased sedation.
