PROCEDURE

Transanal Irrigation (TAI)

The combination of transanal irrigation (TAI) and Loperamide (Lopmin®) involves administering Loperamide orally, with a daily dosage of 2 mg for males (2 tablets once daily) and 1 tablet for females (1 tablet once daily). This is complemented by the use of TAI, a method in which patients self-administer water into the rectum through an enema, aiming to enhance bowel management and potentially alleviate symptoms associated with LARS (Low Anterior Resection Syndrome).
