DOMPERIDONE - ORAL

COMMON BRAND NAME(S): Motilium

USES: This medication is used to treat disorders caused by decreased movement of the stomach and upper intestines (e.g., diabetic gastroparesis, gastritis). It works by increasing stomach emptying and movement of the upper intestines. Treating these disorders can help decrease symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, heartburn, and constant feeling of stomach fullness. This medication is also used to prevent side effects (e.g., nausea, vomiting) from certain medications used to treat Parkinson's disease (e.g., levodopa, dopamine agonists such as pergolide). OTHER USES: This section contains uses of this drug that are not listed in the approved professional labeling for the drug but that may be prescribed by your health care professional. Use this drug for a condition that is listed in this section only if it has been so prescribed by your health care professional. This drug may also be used to treat nausea and vomiting from other causes (e.g., chemotherapy, migraine headaches).

HOW TO USE: Take this medication by mouth, usually 3 to 4 times daily (15 to 30 minutes before meals and at bedtime) or as directed by your doctor. Dosage is based on your medical condition and response to treatment. For children, the dosage is also based on weight. Do not increase your dose or take this medication more often than prescribed. Your condition will not improve any faster, and the risk of serious side effects may be increased. If you also take antacids, take this medication 2 hours before or after antacids. Antacids may decrease the absorption of this medication. Also consult with your doctor if you take drugs that may decrease stomach acid (e.g., H2 blockers such as ranitidine, proton pump inhibitors such as omeprazole). Tell your doctor if your condition persists or worsens.

SIDE EFFECTS: Headache, dry mouth, diarrhea, or abdominal cramping may occur. If any of these effects persist or worsen, tell your doctor or pharmacist promptly. Remember that your doctor has prescribed this medication because he or she has judged that the benefit to you is greater than the risk of side effects. Many people using this medication do not have serious side effects. Tell your doctor immediately if any of these unlikely but serious side effects occur: fast/irregular heartbeat, swelling of the ankles/feet, unusual tiredness, mental/mood changes (e.g., nervousness, irritability), hot flashes, breast swelling/pain, unusual leakage of milk from the breast, changes in menstrual periods, decreased sexual ability. Tell your doctor immediately if any of these rare but very serious side effects occur: muscle stiffness/spasm/twitching, severe dizziness, fainting. A very serious allergic reaction to this drug is rare. However, seek immediate medical attention if you notice any symptoms of a serious allergic reaction, including: rash, itching, swelling, severe dizziness, trouble breathing. If you notice other effects not listed above, contact your doctor or pharmacist.

DRUG INTERACTIONS: See also How to Use section. Your doctor or pharmacist may already be aware of any possible drug interactions and may be monitoring you for them. Do not start, stop, or change the dosage of any medicine before checking with your doctor or pharmacist first. This drug should not be used with the following medications because very serious interactions may occur: drugs that may affect the heart rhythm (QTc prolonging drugs such as bepridil, cisapride, disopyramide, droperidol, halofantrine, levomethadyl, pimozide, ranolazine, sparfloxacin), pramlintide. If you are currently using any of these medications listed above, tell your doctor or pharmacist before starting domperidone.
