Domperidone is a peripheral dopamine-receptor blocker. It increases oesophageal peristalsis, enhances gastroduodenal coordination and lowers oesophageal sphincter pressure, gastric motility and peristalsis, thus facilitating gastric emptying and decreasing small bowel transit time.
Drug Interactions ::
May antagonise the hypoprolactinaemic effect of bromocriptine. May antagonise the prokinetic effect w/ opioid analgesics and antimuscarinics. Potentially Fatal: Potent CYP3A4 inhibitors (e.g. ketoconazole, erythromycin or ritonavir) may increase serum domperidone levels and subsequently increasing the risk of QT prolongation.
