imodium plus

Post by beni »

hi, just wanted to say I find imodium PLUS so much better than plain imodium. In the past in a flare I would take imodium if I really had to but it did nothing for the bloating , wind ,cramps etc, well last week we had my sister in law to stay and she is very depressed due to a 30 year marriage ending so I wanted to take her out on intresting touristy trips each day to help her relax, on one of the days I had little food choice and although not glutened my bowel was bad, gassy, loud noises etc, I was worried I would let her down so took an Imodium Plus, much to my surprise it got rid of all the above, I didnt have D anyway I was just worried I would, I didnt expect it to have such a calming effect,I plan to keep them handy from now on even though I am normally so well these days with the antihistamine Beni

I agree Beni, for the few times I've used it I've found Imodium Plus to be very calming, more so than plain Imodium.

What is the "plus" part that makes it better?

I use the Imodium multi symptom which I think is the same as the plus. Meaning it helps with diarhea along with gas, bloating and cramping.

I used Imodium AD and it has helped with the gas, bloating, etc. I don't know if it's the plus or not.

You never know what you can do until you have to do it.

I've noticed that when I do take regular Imodium, I get a little bloated or get a full feeling. I'll have to try the Plus next time. Thanks for letting us know!! Imodium works wonders for me!

I didn't know either so I searched it; apparently it's also got Simethicone in it - like Gas-X!
Also have sleep apnea
