Ultimo aggiornamento

Per operatori sanitari — solo a scopo di riferimento. Questa pagina è una sintesi breve, non è un parere medico e non sostituisce il RCP ufficiale né il giudizio clinico. Verificare sempre prima di prescrivere o dispensare.

Il contenuto clinico di questa pagina è disponibile solo in inglese.

Sintesi

There is no direct interaction, but excessive polyethylene glycol use that causes persistent diarrhea can lead to hypokalemia and hypomagnesemia. Electrolyte disturbance is a recognised risk factor for QT prolongation and torsades de pointes with domperidone. The concern is conditional and relevant mainly to high-risk patients.

Cosa significa questa interazione in parole semplici

Domperidone and Polyethylene Glycol 3350 can affect each other. The combination is often manageable, but it may need a change of dose, a change of timing, or extra checks while both are taken.

Livello di evidenza: Low

Perché avviene

Pharmacodynamic and indirect: laxative-induced fluid and electrolyte loss lowers potassium and magnesium, which potentiates the QT-prolonging effect of domperidone. No pharmacokinetic interaction is expected.

Cosa fare

Use PEG at the lowest effective dose and stop or reduce it if diarrhea develops. Check and correct potassium and magnesium in patients with persistent diarrhea who take domperidone.

Cosa chiedere al farmacista

  • Should I take them at different times of day?
  • Does the dose of either medicine need to change?
  • Is there anything I should avoid, such as alcohol or certain foods, while on both?
