FORMULATION AND EVALUATION OF FAST DISSOLVING TABLET OF DOMPERIDONE
2014
In the present study, the fast dissolving tablet of Domperidone was formulated for its release. Domperidone acts as a gastrointestinal emptying (delayed) adjunct and peristaltic stimulant. The gastroprokinetic properties of Domperidone are related to its peripheral dopamine receptor blocking properties. Domperidone facilitates gastric emptying and decreases small bowel transit time by increasing esophageal and gastric peristalsis and by lowering esophageal sphincter pressure. . It has strong affinities for the D2 and D3 dopamine receptors, which are found in the chemoreceptor trigger zone, located just outside the blood brain barrier, which regulates nausea and vomiting. .
