“Stoperan suppresses excessive intestinal motility and increases water absorption. As a result, it slows the passage of food through the intestines, reduces the frequency and number of bowel movements and, by causing water to be reabsorbed in the colon, changes the consistency of stool. The onset of action of loperamide occurs 1-3 hours after administration.
Stoperan capsules are intended for use in adults and children over 6 years of age.
