Domperidone is a dopamine antagonist that primarily blocks dopamine receptors in the Chemoreceptor Trigger Zone (CTZ) and the stomach. Its prokinetic action stems from its ability to inhibit dopamine’s influence on gastrointestinal motility.
- Enhances gastric emptying
- Promotes antral and duodenal peristalsis
- Regulates pyloric contraction
- Increases esophageal peristalsis and lower esophageal sphincter pressure, reducing regurgitation
Blood-Brain Barrier: Due to minimal penetration, Domperidone rarely causes neurological side effects.
