Description

Imodium A-D Liquid Diarrhea Medicine helps effectively control the symptoms of diarrhea, including Traveler's Diarrhea. This easy-to-take liquid medicine features a classic mint flavor and is designed to work with your body to slow down your system and restore its natural rhythm and balance. Its proven formula contains 1 milligram of loperamide hydrochloride in every 7.5 milliliters for fast diarrhea relief. From the #1 doctor-recommended anti-diarrheal brand, Imodium A-D works faster than the leading prescription diarrhea medications containing diphenoxylate and atropine.
