Always inform your doctor or pharmacist about all medications, supplements, and herbal remedies you are taking, including over-the-counter drugs. This includes prescription medications, such as opioids, anticholinergics, and certain antibiotics.
Specific Medication Interactions
Motilium (domperidone) can interact with certain medications, potentially affecting their absorption or effectiveness. For example, ketoconazole and erythromycin can increase domperidone blood levels, potentially leading to side effects. Conversely, rifampicin may decrease domperidone effectiveness. Your healthcare provider can assess potential risks and adjust dosages or suggest alternative treatments as needed.
Alcohol and Other Substances
While the interaction of Motilium with alcohol is not extensively documented, it’s recommended to avoid excessive alcohol consumption while taking Motilium. Alcohol can worsen some potential side effects, such as drowsiness. Similarly, consuming grapefruit juice can potentially impact domperidone metabolism. Discuss any concerns about alcohol or other substance use with your physician.
