Vomitil

Introduction

Vomitil 10mg tablets contain Domperidone, a fast-acting medicine used to relieve nausea, vomiting, stomach heaviness, and bloating. It works by speeding up stomach movement and preventing signals in the brain that trigger vomiting. Convenient to take, it is suitable for adults and older children, only under medical guidance.

Primary Uses

• Nausea and vomiting due to infection, overeating, medication, or motion sickness.

• Fullness or heaviness after meals.

• Indigestion and belching caused by slow stomach emptying.

• Supportive therapy in gastric reflux or diabetic gastroparesis.

How It Works

Domperidone blocks dopamine receptors in the stomach and brain, helping food pass more quickly through the digestive system. This reduces vomiting signals, relieves bloating, and improves digestion.

Side Effects

• Mild stomach cramps or diarrhea.

• Dry mouth.

• Headache or dizziness (rare).

• Rise in prolactin levels with prolonged use.

Seek help if you notice rapid heartbeat or severe dizziness, although these effects are uncommon.

Lactation: Not recommended for breastfeeding mothers.
Driving: May cause dizziness — avoid driving if affected.

• Prolactinoma (hormonal tumor).

• Severe cardiac conditions.
