Domperidone is not FDA-approved for use in the United States. This means you cannot obtain a prescription from a US doctor for standard use.
However, some US doctors may prescribe it off-label for specific conditions, usually related to gastroparesis or hyperprolactinemia, after careful consideration of your individual health needs. Securing this off-label prescription requires finding a physician willing to write such a prescription, which may necessitate considerable research and proactive communication.
Expect a thorough discussion of your medical history, current medications, and potential risks and benefits associated with Domperidone. The physician will assess whether the potential benefits outweigh the risks in your case.
Compounding pharmacies can fill prescriptions for Domperidone, provided you have a valid prescription. However, verify the compounding pharmacy’s reputation and certification before using their services.
Importing Domperidone from countries where it’s legally available is generally not recommended. The FDA strictly regulates drug imports, and doing so without proper authorization carries risks regarding both the legality and the authenticity and safety of the medication.
Always discuss your treatment options with your physician. They can provide the most accurate and personalized advice based on your specific medical condition and overall health.
