- With medical follow-up, the opioid antagonist naloxone can be used as an antidote on a trial basis. Since loperamide has a longer duration of action than naloxone, repeated administration of naloxone may be indicated. The patient should therefore be closely monitored for at least 48 hours in order to detect a possible (re) occurrence of overdose symptoms.
