Can Imodium be given to a child?

Imodium can be given to a child for acute diarrhea, but it is not recommended for infectious diarrhea. In cases of severe symptoms, an antibiotic may be prescribed, and non-pharmacological measures should be preferred. Consulting with a pharmacist can provide further guidance on the matter.
