Loperamide induced acute pancreatitis in pediatrics.

Loperamide is an opioid-receptor agonist and acts on the μ-opioid receptor. This causes spasms and dysfunction of the sphincter of Oddi resulting in obstruction of the pancreatic drainage and leading to acute pancreatitis. This case report shows the first case of loperamide induced acute pancreatitis in pediatrics.
