4 CLINICAL PARTICULARS
4.1 THERAPEUTIC INDICATIONS
Domperidone Suspension is indicated in adults for the relief of the
symptoms of nausea and vomiting.
4.2 POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
Domperidone Oral Suspension should be used at the lowest effective
dose for the shortest duration necessary to control
nausea and vomiting.
It is recommended to take Domperidone Oral Suspension before meals. If
taken after meals, absorption of the drug is
somewhat delayed.
Patients should try to take each dose at the scheduled time. If a
scheduled dose is missed, the missed dose should be omitted
and the usual dosing schedule resumed. The dose should not be doubled
to make up for a missed dose.
Usually, the maximum treatment duration should not exceed one week.
_Adults and adolescents (12 years of age and older and weighing 35 kg
or more)._
10 ml (of 1mg/ml oral suspension) up to three times per day with a
maximum dose of 30ml per day.
_Hepatic Impairment_
Domperidone Oral Suspension is contraindicated in moderate or severe
hepatic impairment (see section 4.3). Dose
modification in mild hepatic impairment is however not needed (see
section 5.2).
_Renal Impairment_
Since the elimination half-life of domperidone is prolonged in severe
renal impairment, on repeated administration, the dosing
frequency of Domperidone Oral Suspension should be reduced to once or
twice daily depending on the severity of the
impairment, and the dose may need to be reduced.
