Name
Loperamide hydrochloride
Drug Entry
Loperamide

Loperamide is an anti-diarrheal agent that is available as an over-the-counter product for treating diarrhea.7 The drug was first synthesized in 1969 and used medically in 1976.1 It is a highly lipophilic synthetic phenylpiperidine opioid that works by binding to mu-opioid receptors on intestinal muscles to decrease intestinal motility and electrolyte loss.1 Loperamide has a chemical structure that is similar to diphenoxylate and haloperidol;2 however, loperamide works on mu (μ)-opioid receptors to mediate its pharmacological actions.1
