Resumo

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.

O que esta interação significa em palavras simples

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.

Nível de evidência: Low

Por que acontece

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.

O que fazer

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.
