How Arret Loperamide Works:

Loperamide slows the movement of the intestines, allowing the body to absorb more water and salts from the bowel. This helps reduce loose stools and the urgency associated with diarrhoea.

The capsules contain loperamide hydrochloride which helps reduce diarrhoea by slowing down an overactive bowel, which helps the body to absorb water and salts from the bowel. Arret Capsules should be used in conjunction with oral rehydration therapy which replaces fluids and salts lost during diarrhoea.

Dosage:

Adult and children over 12: Take two capsules initially, followed by one capsule after each loose bowl movement. Do not take more than 5 capsules in any 24 hour period.
