1. What Motilium Oral Suspension is and what it is used for
The name of your medicine is Motilium 1mg/ml Oral Suspension (called Motilium Oral Suspension in this leaflet). The active ingredient in this medicine is called domperidone. This belongs to a group of medicines called ‘dopamine antagonists'.
Motilium Oral Suspension works by helping to move food faster through your food pipe (oesophagus), stomach and gut. This is so that it does not stay in the same place for too long. It also helps stop food flowing the wrong way back up your food pipe.
This medicine is used in adults and in children to treat nausea (feeling sick) and vomiting (being sick).
2. What you need to know before you take Motilium Oral Suspension Do not take Motilium Oral Suspension if:
• You are allergic (hypersensitive) to domperidone or any of the other ingredients of Motilium Oral Suspension (listed in section 6: Contents of the pack and other information). Signs of an allergic reaction include: a rash, swallowing or breathing problems, swelling of your lips, face, throat or tongue.
• You have a tumour of the pituitary gland (prolactinoma).
• You have a blockage or tear in your intestines.
• You have black, tarry bowel motions (stools) or notice blood in your bowel motions. This could be a sign of bleeding in the stomach or intestines.
• You have a moderate or severe liver disease.
• Your ECG (electrocardiogram) shows a heart problem called "prolonged QT corrected interval”.
• You have or had a problem where your heart cannot pump the blood round your body as well as it should (condition called heart failure).
• You have a problem that gives you a low level of potassium or magnesium, or a high level of potassium in your blood.
• You are taking certain medicines (see "Other medicines and Motilium Oral Suspension”)
Do not take Motilium Oral Suspension if any of the above applies to you. If you are not sure, talk to your doctor or pharmacist before taking Motilium Oral Suspension.
Warnings and precautions
Before taking this medicine contact your doctor if:
• You suffer from liver problems (liver function impairment or failure) (see "Do not take Motilium Oral Suspension if”)
• You suffer from kidney problems (kidney function impairment or failure). It is advisable to ask your doctor for advice in case of prolonged treatment as you may need to take a lower dose or take this medicine less often, and your doctor may want to examine you regularly.
If you are not sure if any of the above apply to you, talk to your doctor or pharmacist before taking Motilium Oral Suspension. Do this even if they have applied in the past.
Motilium Oral Suspension may be associated with an increased risk of heart rhythm disorder and cardiac arrest.
