Motilium 10 mg Film-Coated Tablets (Domperidone)

Motilium 10 mg at a Glance

Motilium is the brand name under which domperidone is supplied as a 10 mg film-coated tablet for oral use. We stock this single strength across a wide range of quantities, so the main decision for most customers is not which strength to choose but how many tablets to order and how that quantity fits the short course of treatment advised by their healthcare professional.

What Motilium Is Used For and How It Works

Domperidone is a dopamine D2-receptor antagonist that acts mainly outside the brain. It tightens the lower oesophageal sphincter, increases gastric and duodenal contractions, and speeds gastric emptying, while also blocking dopamine receptors in the area of the brainstem involved in triggering vomiting. Because it crosses into the brain only to a limited extent, it tends to cause less sedation and fewer movement-related side effects than antiemetics that act more extensively within the central nervous system. It is used for the short-term treatment of nausea and vomiting when a prescriber considers it suitable.

Usual Dosing and Timing

Adults are typically directed to take one 10 mg tablet up to three times a day, generally 15 to 30 minutes before meals. Prescribers usually keep treatment as short as possible, commonly no longer than one week, and use the lowest dose that controls symptoms. Total daily intake should not exceed 30 mg. There is no choice between tablet strengths in our current Motilium offer because we carry only the 10 mg film-coated tablet; any adjustment to dose frequency or treatment duration belongs with the prescribing doctor rather than with a fixed store recommendation.

Who Needs Extra Caution

Domperidone carries a recognised risk of QT-interval prolongation and serious ventricular arrhythmia. This risk rises with higher doses, longer use, older age, significant electrolyte disturbances, underlying cardiac disease, and combination with other QT-prolonging medicines or potent CYP3A4 inhibitors such as certain azole antifungals and macrolide antibiotics. It is contraindicated in people with an existing prolonged cardiac conduction interval, moderate or severe liver impairment, prolactinoma, or a gastrointestinal condition in which stimulating movement could be harmful, such as bleeding, mechanical obstruction, or perforation. It must also be avoided by anyone with known hypersensitivity to domperidone or another tablet ingredient.

Use during pregnancy or breastfeeding requires individual clinical judgement. Human pregnancy data are limited, and domperidone passes into breast milk in small amounts. Paediatric dosing is weight-based, so a fixed 10 mg tablet may be unsuitable for smaller children. Common or recognised adverse effects include dry mouth, headache, dizziness, drowsiness, and prolactin-related effects such as breast tenderness or menstrual changes. Anyone who feels dizzy or drowsy should avoid driving or operating machinery until they know how the medicine affects them.

Choosing the Right Pack Size

We list Motilium 10 mg tablets in quantities of 10, 20, 30, 60, 90, 120, 180, 270, and 360. Every option contains the same film-coated 10 mg oral tablet; the only variable is quantity. The practical task is to match the quantity to what a healthcare professional has advised rather than assuming that a larger pack changes the dose or treatment duration. Larger quantities may exceed a usual single short course and should not be selected simply to allow repeated self-treatment without reassessment.

Motilium, Metoclopramide, and Ondansetron

If nausea or vomiting has a cause that domperidone does not suit, a prescriber may consider an antiemetic with a different mechanism. Metoclopramide also affects dopamine pathways and gastrointestinal movement but enters the central nervous system more readily, so movement-related adverse effects are a more prominent consideration. Ondansetron blocks serotonin 5-HT3 receptors and is commonly used in particular clinical settings, but it has its own dosing, constipation, and cardiac-rhythm considerations. The best choice depends on the cause of symptoms, other medicines, and individual risk factors.

Ordering Motilium Through Our Pharmacy

Domperidone is classified as a Schedule 4 prescription medicine in Australia, and Motilium 10 mg tablets are included in the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods under that status.

Our ordering process does not require you to submit a prescription before we accept your order. Anyone unsure whether domperidone is suitable should consult their own doctor or pharmacist before ordering.

Storage, Delivery, and What to Check on Arrival

Once your tablets arrive, store them below 30°C in the original package to protect them from light and moisture, and keep them out of reach of children. Check that the strength printed on the pack is 10 mg, the tablet count matches your order, the packaging is undamaged, and the batch number and expiry date are legible before taking the medicine. Contact our support team if the delivered product or quantity does not match your order or the package appears damaged.

If a dose is missed, take the next dose at its normal scheduled time rather than doubling the dose. If nausea or vomiting continues beyond about one week, keeps returning, or prevents you from retaining fluids, seek medical advice so the underlying cause can be assessed. Stop taking domperidone and obtain prompt medical help if you experience palpitations, fainting, or an unusual heart rhythm. Ongoing or recurring symptoms generally require review by a prescriber rather than continued self-management through repeat orders.
