What is Lomotil and how does it work?
Lomotil is a prescription combination drug containing diphenoxylate and atropine, used alongside fluid and electrolyte therapy to treat severe diarrhea. Diphenoxylate is an opioid that acts on the intestines to slow down muscle contractions and motility. This allows more time for water and nutrients to be absorbed, reducing stool frequency and liquidity. Because diphenoxylate has abuse potential, a small amount of atropine is added to produce unpleasant effects if the medication is taken in excessive doses, acting as a deterrent. The standard tablet contains 2.5 mg of diphenoxylate and 0.025 mg of atropine sulfate. The typical adult dosage is two tablets taken four times daily. Symptom improvement usually occurs within 48 hours; if no improvement is seen after 10 days, consult your doctor. Important safety notes: Lomotil is not appropriate for diarrhea caused by certain bacterial infections and should be used cautiously in patients with liver or kidney disease. Always discuss your full medical history and other medications with your doctor before starting treatment.
