 Question:
					 | 
					 | 
				 
				 |  
				
					| IS there any danger in using Imodium (loperamide) on a regular basis?
 | 
				 
				 |  
				
					| 
 Answer:
					 | 
					 | 
				 
			  |  
				
					It is not advised to use loperamide if you have high fevers, blood  in diarrhoea, or if chronic diarrhoea lasts more than 10 days.  Chronic diarrhoea requires a diagnosis.
