Generic Lomotil is prescribed as an adjunctive drug in treating most diarrhea cases (exceptions are the patients that have negative reactions to diphenoxylate or atropine, obstructive jaundice or diarrhea caused by pseudomembranous enterocolitis or bacteria that give out enterotoxin.) Generic Lomotil is a combination medication containing two main chemicals, diphenoxylate hydrochloride and atropine sulfate. Diphenoxylate hydrochloride is an anti-diarrheal, whereas atropine sulfate is an anti-cholinergic. Its basic action directly affects the bowel muscles, thus increasing the time taken by food to move through the gastrointestinal tract.
Dosage is generally determined by the physician and users should strictly follow the instructions. Usually, the physician may advise four doses per day, depending on various factors like the patient’s condition, age etc. Users should remember that generic Lomotil can be addictive and should restrain its use strictly to doctor’s orders. Also, the doctors may ask for the use to be stopped, gradually reducing the dosage over a period of time. Sudden stoppage of Lomotil use can cause severe withdrawal symptoms.
What happens if I Overodse, Missed Dose
Withdrawal symptoms caused by Lomotil stoppage include spasms; perspiration; throwing up and involuntary shuddering. When users realize that they have missed out on taking a Lomotil dose, they should take it immediately, unless the next dose is in a very short time. When the time between the realization of having missed a dose and the next consecutive dose is very short, then users should ignore the missed dose and only take the regular dose as scheduled. It is important to store Lomotil carefully, so that there is no possibility of pets or children coming in contact with it.
Due to its addictive nature, it is very easy for users to suffer Lomotil overdoses. It is very essential that users fix an appropriate timing for each Lomotil dose in consultation with their physician. Yet, if the user does suffer from overdose, the indicators would be as follows: skin feeling very dry; discomfort; feeling hot or uncontrollable rise in body temperature, etc. Special care should be taken while giving Lomotil to children, as overdoses can be fatal as the child can suffer from respiratory depression.
