Imodium Soft Gel Great. Package they come in Terrible!

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.

Good med. Wish I could open the packages to use it

Shame on you imodium & every generic as well. You say we shouldn’t be having trouble opening the packages. You KNOW we are. I have to use a curved sharp grapefruit knife. The FDA just requires single dose packages. There are plenty of meds in blister packs that are openable. Yours are not in that category.

It's Imodium

it's Imodium, best med to take when you're peeing out of your butt. soft gel caps mean it'll digest fasr and help you get your crap together sooner. stick with the brand name as the knock off version requires industrial tools to get into the package and capsules

Not ready for primetime

The packaging made it virtually impossible to extract a single pill. It was impossible to push the pill out of its container using my thumb. I had to get scissors and cut the pills out. Way too much work - and still had 2 of the pills land on the floor. I will not be buying this product, in this packaging, ever again. [And the pills themselves did little to help the diarrhea.]

Unfortunately will have to stop buying

The packaging doesn't allow easy access to the med. I have to cut the foil because the slit isn't cleanly cut into the foil. The product works well but so do others with easier access. It used to be sold in bottles. Bottles should still be an option.

Quit Blaming the Company

Is the packaging HARD to open? Yes. Is the product GREAT? Yes. So WHY is it hard to open? Because when people abuse the product and IGNORE the dosage instructions it is DANGEROUS ... OTC the MAXIMUM daily dose is 8MG (4 capsules or softgels) but too many customers think MORE IS BETTER (it is NOT) ... too much (that's ANYTHING over the recommended dosage) can cause SERIOUS heart problems. The USDA controls "packaging standards" ... it is REQUIRED that Imodium AD be HARD TO OPEN hoping to dissuade customers from "self-prescribing" overdoses. Now you KNOW WHY it's hard to open ... 'cause too many (one is too many) people abuse this wonderful product by ignoring the instructions.

Too hard to open!

I sent my daughter out to buy me some the night before I went to vegas. Well sure enough I got diarrhea away the casino. Was not able to open the dang things no matter how hard I tried! So they didn't do more much good! Would not recommend this product!

Wonderful

I suffer from Divaticulitus ( diarrhea due to painful swelling of the intestines which causes me to expel the lining of the intestines). This is the only thing helps; prescription medications don't even help. I have never had to even consider taking something else

Love product, but dislike packaging.

I use Imodium a lot. It always helps me. It takes forever to open the package. Why don’t you sell it in a bottle? I looked at past reviews and this has been a problem for your years and you don’t seem to listen to your customers. I might have to purchase a different brand that is easier to open.

Please accept our sincere apology for the inconvenience and frustration you have experienced with the packaging of the IMODIUM® caplets. In September 2019, the FDA announced a decision to limit loperamide containing medicines, including IMODIUM®, to 48 milligrams (or a 24-count pack size) to help address the misuse and abuse of loperamide while preserving access to an essential, over-the-counter remedy for diarrhea sufferers. In addition, the FDA has also required that the caplets be packaged in individual doses. We invite you to visit the following link to learn more details about this change: https://www.fda.gov/drugs/drug-safety-and-availability/fda-limits-packaging-anti-diarrhea-medicine-loperamide-imodium-encourage-safe-use. As a possible alternative, you may consider trying the Imodium® A-D Oral Solution. This is a mint-flavored liquid that comes in a bottle. We encourage you to discuss this with your doctor.

Excellent product, but....

It works reliably, but the package is designed to obstruct access. Need a very sharp knife or scissors to release the soft gel. Are they so dangerous that they are in effect in a vault? Wish they were loose in a bottle. Aged fingers have a hard time! Use often due to medication side effect—3 times/week usually.
