What is Domperidone: Mechanism of Action Overview about?
Domperidone is a dopamine antagonist used to treat upper GI motility disorders associated with conditions like gastritis and gastroparesis. It works by blocking peripheral dopamine receptors in the GI tract to increase motility and decrease transit time. Common side effects include headache, dry mouth, and cardiac issues like QT prolongation. It should be used cautiously in those with long QT syndrome or taking other QT prolonging drugs due to risk of arrhythmias.
