Imodium Advanced Caplets 12 Caplets

Pros: Can be chewed and they work.
Cons: They are a bit on the nasty tasting side. Drink lots of water.

I am reviewing Imodium Advanced a product I initially bought for my dog at the recommendation of her vet. Since then, I have needed it when I eat foods my body is not used to.

About the product:

Imodium...

Pros: Will stop diarrhea.
Cons: Doesn't relieve gas, bloating, pressure as it claims.

I suppose the uncontrollable urge to run for the bathroom has happened to all of us at some point. Lucky for me I had a few packets of Imodium Advanced in a first aid kit that I'd purchased several months ago. I was in no position to run...

Pros: Chewable
Cons: Not As Good As The Original

I was thrilled when they came out with this product.

Why? Because you can chew it and it is much more convenient then the tablets that you have to take with water. I thought if you were traveling you could just pop these in your mouth and be...

Pros: Relieves gas pressure, curbs diarrhea.
Cons: Leaves me feeling bloated.

I happen to be one of those unfortunate souls who are lactose intolerant. In other words my body reacts poorly to consuming foods made with dairy products. For me the end product of eating the foods I so dearly love is a night of intestinal cramping...

Pros: Fast acting, good for emergency situations such as on holiday.
Cons: Works against the bodies natural defence mechanisms.

So what is Imodium? ******************** Well according to Imodium.com it is an over the counter available medication. Its active ingredient is loperamide which "normalises" the function of your intestines. This is fine, but what it actually does is ...

Pros: a two-in-one formula, effective
Cons: taste, taste, taste

I have never been an accomplished athlete, but having those urgent moments when the call of nature rears its ugly head sure make me appear like one. As a sufferer of Irritable Bowel Syndrome, which affects an estimated 10 to 20% of the United States...

Pros: Stop diarreah dead in it's tracks
Cons: Taste

I bought the Imodium Advanced chewable tablets for the first time about a year ago. I had just started a new job.

We would only get a thirty-minute dinner break and had to go to the Employee Dining Room to eat. They provided us with our...

Pros: Effectively relieves "the symptoms of diarrhea."
Cons: Ick! The horrible taste!

Is it possible, even when you’re talking about diarrhea, that the cure could be worse than the disease?

As a person who has to deal with the dreaded d-word more often than average, I’ve had the opportunity to put many anti-diarrheal...

Pros: Can curb diarrhea
Cons: May lead to the other extreme

Ever had one of those bad days where the pot appeared to be your best friend? I had one such experience in September this year during my school holiday as well. Throughout those four painful days I clutched onto my friend (or smelly fiend) like a...

Pros: Works fast, thouroughly releives all symptoms
Cons: taste

Imodium. That’s all I pray for when I have gas and diarrhea. Yes, I am a FEMALE talking about how well this medication works. Hey, I am human just like everyone else and I happen to have irritable bowel syndrome. It is a condition that goes from...

Pros: it's overall great stuff for weak stomachs
Cons: you won't be successfully visiting the bathroom for the next week

Let's face it: some of us just have weak stomachs. I have the weakest stomach in the entire world. I'm convinced that God skipped me over when handing out fully functioning digestive systems. Luckily my family and my boyfriend find this to be very...

Pros: It WORKS FAST!!!!
Cons: taste

I can't believe I'm writing a review of an anti-diarrheal medicine, but I guess I am. Because of a medicine that I have to take to control another medical condition, I had diarrhea for about three years straight. I kid you not! After awhile I knew...

Pros: when you're feeling icky, this does the job!
Cons: I wish it cured diarrhea completely

With Imodium-Advanced. Because when you've got excessive gas and the discomforting, frequent urge to REALLY go, Imodium-Advanced does the job in terms of offering great relief to those symptoms.

Coming in the form of mint-flavored chewables...

Pros: Stops diarrhea, sometimes
Cons: tastes disgusting, doesn't always work, gave me gas

When it comes to diarrhea medicine, I have a belief--mostly psychological--that liquid works better than tablets or chewables. My tried-and-true is mint flavored Kaopectate Concentrate. But since it's impractical to tote around a bottle of liquid to work...

Pros: Works great, no question about it.
Cons: Large size. Poor printing on the back of the pill.

Continuing with my “it’s so boring here at the office the day before Thanksgiving” comes yet another review on some product that I happened to find lying around the office. Imodium Advanced. This time around I have 26 minutes to poop out a review…let’s...
