Product Details

Motilium-V Tablets contain Domperidone Maleate, a medication specifically formulated to manage nausea and vomiting. Domperidone works by enhancing the movement of the stomach and intestines, helping to prevent vomiting and promote smooth digestion. It achieves its antiemetic effects by blocking dopamine receptors in the brain's chemoreceptor trigger zone, reducing feelings of nausea.

Purposes

Motilium-V Tablets are primarily indicated for the treatment of nausea and vomiting. They can be particularly useful in managing these symptoms associated with gastrointestinal disorders, certain medications, or post-operative conditions.

Warnings

1. Patients over 60 years of age should consult their healthcare provider before taking Domperidone Maleate due to an increased risk of ventricular arrhythmia.
2. Domperidone Maleate is not recommended for patients with existing cardiac conduction issues, particularly QTc prolongation, or those with significant electrolyte imbalances.
3. If you experience any signs or symptoms of cardiac arrhythmia while taking this medication, discontinue use immediately and consult your physician.
