Cheap Loperamide For The Runs!!

Recommended Posts

So why pay around £2.80 for only 6 Imodium capsules from shop/supermarket.

I bought a box of 30 capsules for just £2.99 from my local pharmacy -  2 mg Loperamide Hydrochloride (by Mylan) & exactly the same thing/dose as the fancy packaged big brands

These weren't on display (I wonder why!! - is it because the big boys pay for the display space??) - she went & got them from the back when I asked for Loperamide.

Is it the thought of Brexit, or the Coronavirus that's causing the need for the tablets Martin?:rolleyes:

Angling is more than just catching fish, if it wasn't it would just be called 'catching'......... John

I carry that stuff in case I absolutely have to travel while ill but generally, paralysing your gut when your body is trying to get rid of material that is producing toxins is a bad idea.

I generally put myself on a course of ciprofloxacin and take activated charcoal tablets with it (on the advice of a doctor in Singapore) if I'm ill while travelling and I'm usually right in well under 24 hours.

If it fails to respond in 24 hours, it might be amoebic or a protozoan rather than a bacterial infection and it's off to the doctor for advice.

My mum always bought named variety drugs but if the active contents are the same bottom dollar stuff is just as good .

Saw some idiot buy a £22 HDMI cable after a salesperson in currys said the cheap ones are rubbish ,if they are both certified HDMI then even the cheap one will be fine ! Just how good is your eyesight can you actually see a difference reality .

I use ebay ones (not that theres much out there at 4k to look at anyway) the picture looks fine to me perhaps if your tv was 50mtrs away from your dvd player (and 4k dvds are not 4k the contents are not 1 to 1 of what was recorded) perhaps thicker cores and better screening may make a tiny difference but if that was the case and your house that size you could afford it to be closer!

My best and free advice is if you dont want to be ill in a foreign country dont go to a foreign country!

If you dont want to die in an air crash dont fly and dont live under its flight path so those that do that are just about to die dont hit you!

Believe NOTHING anyones says or writes unless you witness it yourself and even then your eyes can deceive you

None of this "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" crap it just means i have at least two enemies!

 

There is only one opinion i listen to ,its mine and its ALWAYS right even when its wrong

 

Its far easier to curse the darkness than light one candle

Grangers law : anything i say will  turn out the opposite or not happen at all!
