Domperidone 10mg Tablets

Product Introduction

Domperidone 10mg Tablets is a prokinetic antiemetic used for nausea, vomiting, indigestion, bloating, and gastric fullness for domperidone treatment. It increases movement of food through the stomach and upper intestine and blocks dopamine receptors involved in nausea signalling, with less direct brain penetration than some older antiemetics. It is usually taken before meals when prescribed for meal-related symptoms.

How to use

Take Domperidone 10mg Tablets as prescribed, often 15-30 minutes before meals. Do not exceed the advised dose or duration. Seek review for persistent vomiting, dehydration, blood in vomit/stool, severe abdominal pain, fainting, or palpitations.

How it works

Domperidone blocks dopamine D2 receptors and increases gastrointestinal motility, helping the stomach empty and reducing nausea and vomiting signals.

Common side effects

Possible effects include dry mouth, abdominal cramps, headache, dizziness, breast tenderness, menstrual changes, and milk discharge. Serious warning signs include fainting, palpitations, severe dizziness, allergic swelling, or symptoms of abnormal heart rhythm.

Important information

Review heart disease, QT prolongation, low potassium/magnesium, liver disease, kidney disease, pregnancy, breastfeeding, gastrointestinal bleeding or obstruction, and interacting antibiotics, antifungals, antidepressants, antipsychotics, or antiarrhythmics.
