SuspensionClinical Overview
Domperidone Tablets (10mg) and Suspension (5mg/5ml) is a peripheral dopamine D2 receptor antagonist antiemetic and prokinetic on the WHO Model List framework. Because it does not readily cross the blood-brain barrier, it acts primarily at the chemoreceptor trigger zone (outside the blood-brain barrier) and gastrointestinal tract, stimulating upper GI motility, increasing LES pressure, and accelerating gastric emptying. Indicated for relief of symptoms of nausea and vomiting of various etiologies, and diabetic gastroparesis.

Usage Guidelines
Take orally 15 to 30 minutes before meals and, if needed, before bedtime. Adults: 10 mg up to 3 times daily (maximum 30 mg/day). Pediatric suspension: Dose strictly based on weight (0.25 mg/kg up to 3 times daily). Treatment duration should not exceed 7 days for acute nausea.
General Administration Advice: Adhere strictly to the prescribed dosage, frequency, and treatment course. For oral medications, swallow with sufficient water. Never stop antibiotics, psychiatric medications, or antihypertensives abruptly without clinical direction.
Possible Side Effects
Common: Dry mouth, headache, abdominal cramps, diarrhea. Rare/Severe: QTc prolongation, ventricular tachycardia, Torsades de Pointes, hyperprolactinemia (galactorrhea, gynecomastia, amenorrhea), and acute dystonic reactions.
*Note: Individual physiological responses vary. While many patients experience few or no side effects, notify your treating physician if adverse reactions persist or if hypersensitivity (angioedema, skin rash, dyspnea) occurs.
Precautions & Warnings
Contraindicated in patients with moderate or severe hepatic impairment, underlying cardiac conduction disorders, prolonged QTc intervals, heart failure, or prolactinoma. Maximum recommended duration is 7 days.
Schedule H (Prescription Required)
This medication is scheduled under statutory drug regulatory frameworks (CDSCO / Drugs & Cosmetics Rules). Dispensing requires a valid medical prescription from a registered medical practitioner. Self-medication or unsupervised dosage adjustment carries significant clinical risks.

Domperidone Tablets 10 mg
Domperidone Tablets (10mg) and Suspension (5mg/5ml) is a peripheral dopamine D2 receptor antagonist antiemetic and prokinetic on the WHO Model List framework. Because it does not readily cross the blood-brain barrier, it acts primarily at the chemoreceptor trigger zone (outside the blood-brain barrier) and gastrointestinal tract, stimulating upper GI motility, increasing LES pressure, and accelerating gastric emptying. Indicated for relief of symptoms of nausea and vomiting of various etiologies, and diabetic gastroparesis.
Omeprazole 20mg + Domperidone 10mg Capsules
Omeprazole (20mg gastro-resistant) and Domperidone (10mg/30mg sustained-release) is a cornerstone fixed-dose PPI and prokinetic combination on the WHO Model List framework. Omeprazole irreversibly suppresses gastric acid secretion by inhibiting parietal cell H+/K+-ATPase. Domperidone blocks peripheral dopamine D2 receptors in the chemoreceptor trigger zone (CTZ) and gastrointestinal tract, stimulating gastric motility and preventing acid reflux. Indicated for gastroesophageal reflux disease, non-ulcer dyspepsia, and peptic ulcer disease accompanied by nausea, fullness, or vomiting.
Rabeprazole 20mg (Enteric Coated) + Domperidone 30mg (Sustained Release) Capsules
Rabeprazole Sodium (20mg enteric-coated) and Domperidone (10mg/30mg sustained-release) is a rapid-onset PPI and prokinetic combination. Rabeprazole has a higher pKa (~5.0) than other PPIs, allowing faster activation at higher pH and achieving rapid, potent inhibition of gastric H+/K+-ATPase pumps from the first dose. Domperidone provides dopamine D2 antagonism to enhance lower esophageal sphincter tone and accelerate gastric emptying. Indicated for erosive esophagitis, GERD, hypersecretory conditions, and dyspeptic symptom complexes (nausea, postprandial fullness, acid regurgitation).
Pantoprazole 40mg (Gastro-resistant) + Domperidone 30mg (Prolonged Release) Capsules
Pantoprazole (20mg/40mg enteric-coated) and Domperidone (10mg/30mg sustained/prolonged-release) is a fixed-dose combination antiulcer and prokinetic therapy. Pantoprazole irreversibly binds to the gastric H+/K+-ATPase proton pump on parietal cells, suppressing basal and stimulated hydrochloric acid secretion for >24 hours. Domperidone is a peripheral dopamine D2 receptor antagonist that accelerates gastric emptying and increases lower esophageal sphincter (LES) tone without crossing the blood-brain barrier. Indicated for gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) with reflux esophagitis, non-ulcer dyspepsia, diabetic gastroparesis, and acid peptic disorders associated with nausea, fullness, or early satiety.
