application:

Loperamide hydrochloride is a common drug for the treatment of diarrhea. It can be used as an antidiarrheal drug or a long-acting antidiarrheal drug. It is mostly used for the treatment of acute and chronic dysentery. It is used for the opioid receptors in the intestinal wall to prevent the release of acetylcholine and prostaglandin, thereby inhibiting intestinal peristalsis and prolonging the residence time of intestinal contents; it can increase the tension of the anal sphincter, so it can inhibit fecal incontinence and urgency.
