difficult to open!!!!!!!!!

That is why I gave this a 1 star. YOU try opening these blasted things and then YOU come back here and tell us how "easy" it is. "Tear" to open. Are you serious? You need a chainsaw to get into these enclosures. I have to take a sharp small utility knife and cut thru the backside in order to get the product. I suggest that you folks rethink your packaging.IF you can get to the caplets, then they work great.

Fix packaging!

I along with countless others have found that the ridiculously hard to open packaging has off-set the benefits of an otherwise good product. I've resorted to having my doctor write a prescription for Loperimide. Much cheaper and comes in a bottle

Work great, nearly impossible to remove from packa

My wife is going through chemotherapy and often needs this product. Thank god I’m a retired aircraft mechanic otherwise opening the package would be nearly impossible. Either the slit isn’t cut correctly or you have another production problem.

Terrible packaging

It works ok. It’s very difficult to open the foil packet to get to the pill. Especially for an older person. Put it in a bottle…

Works great

The medication works great. My only complaint is that my elderly mother cannot open the packaging by herself. Would be great if it was in a bottle.

Caplet Packaging is Awful

The sealed caplets are tremendously difficult to access!! The small size, plastic, foil backing, and necessity for scissors are VERY inconvenient when trying to take the pill(s). My family needs to cut the pills out & place them in a bottle.

very, very difficult to open package.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] imodium works great once you struggle to open the package. Packaging needs to be addressed and find a better way to package the product. I wouldn't recommend this product only because it is very difficult to open.

I would prefer my tablets to come on a bottle and not have to buy them on a card wire plastic, aluminum And paper. Can they be purchased in bottles

Opening it

Product works great but no older people can open the darn pill pouch with scissors or a knife. Our elderly hands are not as strong as the young people who probably make the packaging. Convenient to take with you if it could be opened!

Unredeemable packaging

Unless I have access to a knife or a scissors, it would be very, very difficult to access the pills in blister packaging. Even then, I have occasionally broken pills while trying to access them - a waste of money. I like the product, but absolutely abhor the packaging.

Poor packaging

The packaging is so very poor on any kind of Imodium product. I don’t recommend it for anyone specifically for that reason. I’ve taken scissors to them. It is so difficult to rip their ridiculous. Why are they packaged individually? Why can’t you just put them in a bottle so we can pick them out like a vitamin? It’s absolutely frustrating and time-consuming.

PACKAGING SUCKS!!!

I'd give 5 stars for the effectiveness of immodium, however I'm only giving 3 because of packaging. I actually thought about 1 star because of it. For someone with little to no hand/finger strength your packaging of the caplets is absolutely rediculous! It's not a controlled substance for Pete's sake!!! Why make it nearly impossible to get to????? I had to use scissors to cut all the way around the pill and STILL had to practically chew my way in to get the pill out!!!! This is ridiculous! A person could crap their pants trying to get to these things! I think maybe I'll not buy these again!!!!!

The struggle is real.

Helps with symptoms, frustrating to access. Packaging is awful for people with ‘normal’ strength and use of their hands! It’s horrible. I dont know why it’s such a chore to open and get a dose. This is people-proof

Crappy packaging 4 years ago, nothing done

Packets are impossible to open by hand without crushing the tablet. Imodium has to hate it's customers. These complaints were acknowledged 4 years ago and nothing has been done. Customer retention gets a 0 out of 5 stars. Most people probably deuce themselves a couple times before they get just 1 tablet out of the packaging!

Worst packaging ever.

Worst packaging ever. It should not be so difficult to get relief while trying to open the blister pack. I see other answers to comments that says you are working on it but how many years has this product been on the market with the same miserable and frustrating packaging?

Hard to access

I would like to buy tablets or caplets in a bottle without having to go through packaging for each pill. Easier and more ecological.
