Indications

Motilium is a brand name for the drug domperidone. It is an antiemetic and prokinetic medicine used to treat nausea and vomiting, particularly in adults and adolescents over 12 with a weight of at least 35 kg.

Motilium works by blocking the action of a chemical messenger in the brain which causes the feeling of nausea and by promoting the movement of food through the digestive system.

Use and Dosage

The recommended dosage for Motilium (domperidone) is up to 10 mg, taken up to three times per day, for a maximum daily dose of 30 mg.

The actual dosage may vary depending on the age, weight, and specific condition of the patient.

Use the lowest effective dose for the shortest possible duration. Patients with moderate or severe liver impairment should not take Motilium. As always, it is best to consult with a healthcare provider for guidance on proper dosage.

FAQ

What happens if I miss a dose?

If you miss a dose of domperidone, take it as soon as you remember. However, if it is almost time for the next dose, wait until that is due and then continue as normal. Do not take a double dose to make up for a missed dose.

What happens if I overdose?

If you take too much domperidone, seek medical attention straight away. In the event of an overdose, symptomatic treatment can be implemented. An ECG monitoring may be undertaken, because of the possibility of a heart problem called prolonged QT interval.
