UGH! Just to warn you all that Immodium Advanced+Anti-gas medication might cause MORE gas!!! Maybe it's just me, but i had to work yesterday(i deliver mail), i had eaten some dry cheerios that morning but nothing thru the day.I got home and ate a little snack and had D almost instantly and it didn't stop,so i had my hubby pick up some Immodium at Walmart,only he picked up the Immodium Advanced w/ anti-gas medication in it. WELL, it stopped the D but omg,i sure have the gas now!!!!! Not necessarily the kind you can "pass" but you can hear it in my intestines,UGH how embarrassing because my son had a friend spend the night and now im trying to stay away from them because my tummy is making some really loud noises that sound like i am " passing" gas but i'm actually not. I don't think im ever gonna take that stuff again!!!

It's funny the English equivalent (Immodium Plus) did the same to me - thought it was just me! Also made my pain worse...

When ever I've taken it, it's never seemed to work anyway.

I have never had a problem with Immodium Advanced. I don't know, I guess it affects people differently.

Imodium Advanced chewables have sorbitol in them. I don't know why they would put sorbitol that gives most people "D" in a medicine to stop "D".

I bought the kind in tablet form.I seem to do okay with regular Immodium A.D. but not this Immodium Advanced with anti-gas medicine.I guess it does not help that i didn't eat anything all day either, but it's really hard to eat on the mail route.One hand on the steering wheel the other hand holding the mail bundles,ugh i need 3 arms! lol. I had to deliver 300 phone books too,one for every customer, that really made for a long day.
