Get problem fixed: Generally, you should not take Imodium (loperamide) ad daily, forever, as you most likely have some obvious issues with diarrhea. You need to get the underlying cause of your diarrhea diagnosed, so that the true treatment of curing and treating your diarrhea can occur. Best wishes.

Imodium (loperamide): Rather than taking the imodium, (loperamide) one should find out the reason for your diarrhea.
