Eldoper Capsule 10

Eldoper Capsule is used to treat loose motions and sudden (acute) diarrhoea. It contains the active ingredient Loperamide, which slows the movement of your gut. This simple action keeps the contents in your intestines longer, allowing your body to absorb more water and resulting in firmer, less frequent stools.

Administering Eldoper Capsule correctly is crucial. Here are the standard steps:

• Swallow the capsule whole with a glass of water. It can be taken with or without food.
• Avoid opening, crushing, or chewing the capsule.
• If you find it difficult to swallow the capsule, consult your doctor for alternatives.
• Always adhere strictly to your doctor's instructions regarding when and how to use this medicine.

Eldoper Capsule is taken orally.

Eldoper Capsule contains loperamide (2 mg). Here's how it works:

• Mu-opioid receptor activation: The loperamide in Eldoper Capsule binds to and activates mu-opioid receptors in your gut. This reduces the release of certain chemicals that contribute to diarrhoea.
• Slowing down intestinal movement: Loperamide disrupts the gut's electrical activity and muscular contractions, increasing the time food spends in the intestines.
• Absorption of fluids and electrolytes: The medicine increases the tone of your anal sphincter, which helps the body absorb more fluids and electrolytes.
• Reduction in bowel movements: By decreasing the frequency of colonic mass movements, Eldoper Capsule reduces the urge to defecate.
• Decrease in fluid secretion: Eldoper Capsule also works to reduce fluid secretion in your intestines, which helps to solidify stools and further manage symptoms of diarrhoea.

• Store Eldoper Capsule in a cool, dry place, ideally below 30°C.
• Keep it away from direct sunlight as it can affect the medicine's effectiveness.
• Ensure the storage area is not exposed to excessive moisture or heat.
• Always keep this medicine out of reach of children to prevent accidental ingestion.
• Use Eldoper Capsule before the expiry date printed on the package for maximum benefits.

• If you're taking Eldoper Capsule for acute diarrhoea, ensure your diet includes plenty of fluids and electrolytes. This helps replenish what your body loses during bouts of diarrhoea.
• If you're managing chronic diarrhoea associated with conditions like inflammatory bowel disease, incorporate low-fat and low-fibre foods into your diet. These are usually easier on your digestive system. Always consult your doctor about specific dietary changes.
