What is Domperidone?

Domperidone is an anti-sickness medicine that helps to alleviate the symptoms of nausea and vomiting. It is also prescribed to treat stomach pain by increasing the contractions or movements of the stomach and bowel.

Doctors have also found Domperidon effective with the increase of milk supply for women that are breastfeeding. This is only prescribed to women who are struggling to lactate. Please note, Cloud Pharmacy does not prescribe on this basis.

Domperidone has been shown to be effective in preventing stomach problems associated with certain medications for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease.

Often referred to by its brand name Motilium, Domperidone is available in tablet or suspension form.

How does Domperidone work?

Domperidone is an antiemetic and a prokinetic medicine. What this means is that it is effective at relieving symptoms of vomiting & nausea (antiemetic) and acid reflux (prokinetic).

Antiemetic medication works by blocking the action of chemicals in the brain that results in feelings of nausea and vomiting.

Prokinetic medications control acid reflux in the stomach. It helps to empty the stomach and digestive tract quicker through increased movements and contractions of the stomach and intestines. It also helps to reduce the feelings of fullness, indigestion and bloating.

Domperidone warnings

It is necessary that your doctor check your progress at regular visits. This allows the doctor to see if the medicine is working properly and to decide if you continue taking it.

If your symptoms do not improve within a few days, or if they become worse, you should see your doctor.

Because Domperidone enhances movement in the digestive tract, it may affect the absorption and action of other medications you are taking. It is important that you tell your doctor of any prescription or nonprescription medications you are currently taking especially monoamine oxidase inhibitors.

Do not start or stop any medicine without the approval of your doctor.
