Product Overview

Introduction of Colodium 2mg Capsule 10s (strip)

Colodium 2mg Capsule is an antidiarrhoeal medication containing Loperamide Hydrochloride as its active ingredient, belonging to the opioid receptor agonist drug class that works locally in the gut. If you're dealing with an uncomfortable situation and need something reliable, it's good to know that this capsule is a well-established option available through licensed pharmacies in Malaysia. Like most medicines, Colodium 2mg may cause some side effects including constipation, dizziness, nausea, and abdominal cramping in some users — so it's always wise to be aware before you start. Before taking this capsule, please check with your doctor or pharmacist if you have any existing health conditions, are pregnant, breastfeeding, or are currently on other medications, as this helps ensure it is safe and suitable for you.

How to Take Colodium 2mg Capsule

Colodium 2mg Capsule should be taken orally, swallowed whole with a full glass of water, and can generally be taken with or without food. It is important to follow the dosage instructions provided by your doctor or pharmacist and not to exceed the recommended dose, as taking more than directed does not improve results and may increase the risk of side effects. Always read the product leaflet carefully before use and seek medical advice if your symptoms persist or worsen after 48 hours of treatment.

Dosage of Colodium 2mg Capsule

The typical recommended starting dose for adults is 2 capsules (4mg) initially, followed by 1 capsule (2mg) after each loose stool, with a maximum of 8mg (4 capsules) per day for self-medication use, unless otherwise directed by a healthcare professional. Children's dosing requirements differ from adults, so always consult a doctor before administering this medication to anyone under 12 years of age.

Shelf Life of Colodium 2mg Capsule

Colodium 2mg Capsule generally has a shelf life of 2 to 3 years from the date of manufacture, as indicated on the packaging.

CNS Depressants (e.g., sedatives, tranquilisers, alcohol) — May enhance CNS depressant effects when taken in higher-than-recommended doses
Saquinavir (HIV medication) — Co-administration may reduce Saquinavir plasma levels
Other antidiarrhoeal agents — Concurrent use is generally not recommended without medical supervision

Alcohol — Avoid alcohol consumption while taking Colodium 2mg Capsule as it may potentiate dizziness and drowsiness
