Comment:
Was sick for days, tried all the other over the counter drugs and they all failed to help me. Then saw the Doc, he gave me this medication, it worked immediately and I also began drinking pedialyte. Doc gave me a shot of Phenegan 25mg for discomfort and immediately felt comfort and relief. 10 hours later feeling great.

Comment:
I started taking Lomotil 7 years ago after having my colon removed due to severe ulcerative colitis. It worked for a few weeks, but now, even with an increased dosage (I take 4 pills 3 times a day) it has virtually no effect. I would love to find something that works!

I have taken this drug for 5 years. It is a life saver! I can actually go shopping, out to dinner and not be house bound. I have had NO side effects. I take 2 pills in the morning and 2 pills around noon. then I am through for the day. Bless my doctor for prescribing this pill.
