About Milium tablet 10mg

Milium tablet Uses

• Nausea and vomiting
• Bloating and early fullness after meals
• Delayed stomach emptying (gastroparesis)
• Nausea related to certain medicines, including Parkinson's treatment

Drug Class

• Dopamine antagonist
• Prokinetic and antiemetic agent

What Experts Say

Domperidone blocks dopamine receptors in the gut and the brain's vomiting center, which reduces nausea and helps the stomach empty faster. This eases bloating and discomfort after eating.

It is usually taken fifteen to thirty minutes before meals, and treatment is kept as short as possible, generally not more than one week without medical review.

The most important safety point is heart rhythm. Domperidone can affect heart rhythm at higher doses, so it should be avoided in people with existing heart conditions or those on certain other medicines.
