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.]

The product worked very well for me. Took 2 after the 1st loose bowel movement and had no more pain, bloating, gas or loose stool. I only gave the product 3 stars because I almost spoiled myself trying to free the capsule from its packaging. I've heard of child proofing, but this is PEOPLE PROOFING. Additionally, the lettering in the 'Direction' section is much too small. Perhaps that section should be isolated and printed on the inside of the box in bigger font in an area that is least likely to be hastily torn off when the bos is opened. That way, you wouldn’t have to enlarge the packaging. I’m not surprised to see all the similar reviews, I am dismayed that there seems to be no attempt to address this problematic packaging. Thanks for reading to the end.

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!

This product truly is amazing and works fast . I had terrible diarrhea and was going to the bathroom every 10 minutes . A friend recommended i take this product before going to the emergency room . I took it and with in a hour the loose stool every 10 minutes stopped . I was so relieved . I would have given this product a 5 star but the packaging sucked and i had to find a knife just to open the packaging and ended up almost going to the bathroom on myself . The packaging needs to be user friendly .

These work great and get me thru a workday

Product is great - these blister packs no one like - bottle would be better

these work very well for me since I suffer from short bowel syndrome due to colon removal. I would like these to be in a bottle because blister packs are hard to open.

This is the best product out their but you need to be a surgeon to open it!!!!! It has made me so angry at times I’ve not used it for months. It’s not just the elderly that can’t open it!!! Why do this??

Pls change the packaging. I prefer softgels but I cannot open packaging on softgels or tablets without scissors. I don’t always have those available in emergency situation.

Why are Immodium Soft gels sold in Canada in a simple to open pop out foil. True you can't tear two away but the easy to open feature is so great I would imply take the 12 that are packaged together and pop it in my purse. This is the value size.
