Imodium contains Loperamide which is used as an
anti-diarrheal is available in the form of capsules, each available in the
strength of 2 mg. It is opioid agonist, works by binding to the ยต-opioid receptors
present in the myenteric plexus of the large intestine, the binding results in
the decrease in the tone of the longitudinal and circular smooth muscles in the
large intestine, hence results in more water to be absorbed from the fecal
matter.
