Uses of Motilium-M 10 mg

Motilium-M may be prescribed for the short-term relief of nausea and vomiting when considered appropriate by a healthcare professional.

• Nausea: Helps relieve the uncomfortable sensation of feeling sick.

• Vomiting: May help reduce vomiting associated with conditions for which domperidone is indicated.

• Digestive symptoms: Its effect on stomach movement may be relevant in selected circumstances, but it should not be used routinely for bloating, acid reflux, GERD, or delayed gastric emptying without appropriate medical advice.

How Does Motilium-M Work?

Domperidone blocks dopamine D2 receptors, mainly outside the brain, including receptors involved in the digestive system. This action can improve upper gastrointestinal movement and help reduce nausea and vomiting.

Possible Side Effects

Like other medicines, Motilium-M may cause side effects. These can include:

• Dry mouth

• Headache

• Abdominal discomfort or cramps

• Dizziness

• Increased prolactin levels, which may sometimes cause breast tenderness, breast milk production, or menstrual changes

Seek urgent medical attention if you experience a rapid or irregular heartbeat, fainting, a severe allergic reaction, or other serious symptoms.
