To see a complete list of dilutants, see section 6.1. 3. PHARMACEUTICAL FORM Oral lyophilisate. 4. CLINICAL DATA 4.1. Therapeutic Indications Short-term treatment for acute temporary diarrhoea for adults and children over 15 years. This is a supplementary treatment to dietetic measures. 4.2. Dosage and how to use Orally. Suitable for adults and children over the age of 15 years old. Initial dosage: 2 Oral lyophilisates then 1 extra Oral lyophilisate, to be taken after every non-soft stool but: - Do not exceed 6 Oral lyophilisates per day. - Do not exceed 2 days of treatment. - Place in mouth to melt or dilute in water and drink immediately. 4.3. Contraindications Acute outbreaks of ulcerative colitis (risk of colectasis). Hypersensitivity to one of its components in the capsule. 4.4. Special warnings and side effects Special warnings: This medication is not suitable for children younger than 15 years old. If the diarrhoea persists after 2 days of treatment , treatment needs to be revaluated and a rehydration solution will need to be prescribed. This drug contains lactose. This drug is not recommended for patients with a lactose intolerance. Precautions for use Loperamide should not be used as a first-line treatment in acute dysenteries with presence of blood in the stool and high fever. Loperamide should not be used for diarrhoea if also on a treatment with anti-biotic medication. In fact, pseudomembranous colitis with poisoning should be feared. In this case, any treatment resulting in faecal stasis should be avoided. In general, loperamide should not be used when inhibition of peristalsis should be avoided and administration should be discontinued in the event of constipation or abdominal distension. Hepatic insufficiency should be monitored for the important first-pass effect. 4.5. Interactions with other drugs Not applicable. 4.6. Pregnancy and breast feeding Pregnancy: Studies in animals have not shown a teratogen effect. In the absence of a teratogenic effect in animals, a malformative effect on the human species is not expected. To date the substances responsible for malformations in the human species have been shown to be teratogenic in animals during well-conducted studies on two species. The use of loperamide among a small number of pregnancies has not caused any malformations or foetal toxicity to this date. However, extra studies are required to evaluate the consequences during pregnancy. Given the data, the use of lopermaide is not recommended during pregnancy unless necessary. In case of prolonged treatment, take into account its opiate properties which can in particular affect the digestive functions of the newborn. Breast feeding: The passage of loperamide into human milk is very weak; therefore loperamide can be taken during pregnancy. In case of prolonged treatment, take into account its opiate properties. 4.7. Effects on the ability to drive and operate machinery This medication can sometimes cause light and temporary drowsiness. For drivers and users of machinery, be aware of the risk of drowsiness from taking this medication. 4.8. Side effects - constipation and/or abdominal pain combined with ileus in very rare cases. - abdominal pain, bloating, nausea, vomiting, dry mouth. - asthenia, drowsiness, vertigo. - rare allergic reactions including rash, urticaria and angioedema and extremely rare cases of anaphylactic shocks. 4.9. Overdose Symptoms Central nervous system depression (decrease in vigilence, drowsiness, mycosis, hypertonia, respiratory depression, coordination problems), urinary retention and ileus. Children are more sensitive to the effects of the central nervous system. Emergency procedure Naloxone can be used as an antidote. The duration of action of the speciality being longer than that of naloxone (1 to 3 hours), it may be necessary to renew the administration of the latter. As a result, the patient should be kept under medical supervision for at least 48 hours to detect any depression of the central nervous system. 5. PHARMACOLOGICAL PROPERTIES 5.1. Pharmaco-dynamic properties ANTI-DIARRHOEA. (A: digestive and metabolism) Anti-diarrhoea , opiates structure.
