 How it works

• Domperidone blocks dopamine (D2) receptors.
• It makes the stomach and intestines work more, which helps food leave the body faster.
• It also stops dopamine signals in the gut and the vomiting center, which helps with nausea and vomiting.
• It doesn't penetrate the blood-brain barrier very easily; thus, it doesn't cause as many neurological side effects as other antiemetics.

 Medicine interaction

• Antifungals like ketoconazole and itraconazole
• Macrolide antibiotics, like clarithromycin and erythromycin
• SSRIs are antidepressants.
• Cardiac drugs that make the QT interval longer
• Antacids or medications that lower acid levels (omeprazole, pantoprazole) should be administered an hour later.
• Grapefruit juice raises the levels of domperidone.
• Don't mix with any medicine that makes heart rhythm problems more likely.
