Method of application
Adults and children over 12 years of age and weighing at least 35 kg: 1 tablet (10 mg) 3 times a day.
The maximum daily dose is 3 tablets (30 mg per day).
It is recommended to take Domrid® before meals. Absorption of the drug is somewhat delayed if taken after meals. The duration of treatment should not exceed 1 week.
Application features
Use during pregnancy or breastfeeding
Domrid should be prescribed during pregnancy only if, in the opinion of the doctor, the expected positive effect for the mother outweighs the potential risk to the fetus.
The amount of domperidone that can enter the infant through breast milk is extremely low. The maximum relative dose for infants (%) is estimated to be about 0.1% of the maternal dose adjusted for body weight. It is not known whether it is harmful to the infant, therefore mothers taking Domrid should refrain from breastfeeding. Caution should be exercised in the presence of risk factors for prolongation of the QTc interval in breast-fed infants. After exposure as a result of the drug entering breast milk, the occurrence of side effects, including cardiological effects, cannot be excluded.
Children
The drug should be used to treat children aged 12 years and over and weighing at least 35 kg.
Domperidone should be given to children at the lowest effective dose for the shortest period of time.
Ability to influence reaction speed when driving vehicles or other mechanisms
Given the side effects on the nervous system, patients need to be careful when driving or working with other mechanisms.
Overdose
Symptoms: Symptoms of overdose may include agitation, impaired consciousness, convulsions, drowsiness, disorientation, and extrapyramidal reactions, especially in children.
Treatment. There is no specific antidote for domperidone, but in the event of a significant overdose, gastric lavage within 1 hour of ingestion and administration of activated charcoal are recommended, as well as close observation of the patient and supportive therapy. Anticholinergic drugs, agents for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease may be effective in controlling extrapyramidal reactions.
Storage conditions
Store in the original packaging at a temperature not exceeding 25 °C.
Keep out of reach of children.
