Abstract
Forty patients who were suffering from chronic dyspepsia, diagnosed clinically and radiologically as being related to delayed gastric emptying, were treated with either domperidone or placebo in a double-blind trial. The trial lasted four weeks and the dose of domperidone was 10 mg orally t.d.s. before meals. The results showed that the drug markedly improved symptoms and that side effects were few, being recorded in one patient only, on active treatment. It is concluded that domperidone is a useful agent for the treatment of dyspepsia with retarded gastric emptying.
