Hi all, Just wanted to share with you that the Comité para la Evaluación de Riesgos en Farmacovigilancia europeo-PRAC (Eurpoean Comitte for the Evaluation of Pharmacological Risk - that is my translation) has just published a warning on Domperidone (which is of legal use here in Europe). Looks like more cases of life-threatening arrythmias have happened on people older than 60, people with previous heart problems, AND when doses have been high or used for long periods. Thiis is the link from the Spanish Comitte which adopts the European warnings and recommendations: http://www.aemps.gob.es/informa/notasInformativas/medicamentosUsoHumano/seguridad/2014/NI-MUH_FV_04-2014-domperidona.htm Bottom line: use ONLY for the treatment of nausea and vomit, never more than 30 mg per day. Has this recommendation been made elsewhere? Warm hugs, Kika Dra.
