Imodium A-D Anti-Diarrheal Softgels are great for when you just can't stay home. For me, I have to take the first dose and then the second in order for it to work. But it works and at least I'm not in the bathroom all day! I've tried other products and have had to take the max daily dose and still have no relief. I highly recommend A-D Anti-Diarrheal Softgels for occasional and not so occasional diarrhea. I keep them at home and in my locker at work.

These work great but like so many others,,it is Impossible to open the package without carrying a pair of scissors. Why do t you isten to your consumers and make an easy open package.?? It's insane to hear so many people tell you they can't open the package and all they get is, "I'm sorry to hear that".

Did you ever try to open up an Imodium packet? When you’re not feeling well and you’re on the toilet bowl that’s happened to me today and then my husband tried to help me and he uses a knife to try to open it and then like we’re decision to try to open it and I’m still having a hard time opening it, and the directions are so far down on the back of the box on the bottom that by the time you finish reading the all the other nonsense you’re sick again you need to make explicit directions.

These worked exceptionally well in regards to stopping the loose stools and without taking you to the other end of the spectrum, CONSTIPATION. You can rest assured they do the job safely and effectively without nasty drawbacks like others I've used. Thanks Immodium for making another SUPERIOR product.

I used to buy store brand until I tried these, I now will ONLY use the "REAL ONE"! There really is a big difference. The gel form of any medication I have found works better, and the Imodium brand seems to be more gentle then others. I won't go back!

My 88 year old mother and I both need, and use, Imodium AD with good results. But her age and feebleness plus my painful, arthritic fingers make it extremely difficult to open the individual blister packages. I need to use a knife or scissors and often end up cutting the gel tabs! I've read numerous complaints regarding this exact problem and yet it doesn't seem that the manufacturer cares enough to put this product into an easy-to-open bottle. Would love to give this product a higher rating but won't strictly due to the poor packaging.

Imodium (loperamine) is the best product for controlling diarrhea but buy it in the tablet for that comes loose in a bottle. The tiny tablet is easier to swallow than the big rubbery gelcap and contains the same amount of the actual drug. And you don't have to use tools to extricate each gelcap from its hard-to-open sealed pocket. Putting this tiny drug into a big gelcap is just a marketing ploy; individually packaging gelcaps on cards in an unnecessary box may attract more attention on the sales shelf, and the naive consumer may think she is getting more for her money. Further, gelcaps will melt in a hot car and hog space if you carry basic meds and vitamins with you or use a container with a pocket for each of the seven days of the week. Generally a bad idea based on greed.

Imodium works well but the packaging of the oval shaped gel tabs makes it a major job to get the gel tab out of the packaging no matter how many times you fold and pull. If you can actually get the pill out don't set it down because it will roll right off the table because of its shape. I am very unhappy with the packaging of these pills and will never buy them again.

The product works very well for me. I get fast relief. But I must say the packaging is terrible. They are so hard to get into...even when breaking the corner off and peeling the foil back. Please put these in bottles or a better packaging that can be easily opened. Nothing should be this hard to get into.

Imodium is the only anti diarrhea medicine I use. It works fast and is long lasting. It takes away the pain and cramping as well as stopping the diarrhea in its tracks. I usually only have to take one pill not two bc two will stop me up for a few days. If it's really bad though I will take 3. I always have this in stock in my medicine cabinet!
