The Area Prescribing Committee recommends the use of domperidone for the treatment of gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD) in adults only when prescribed within a secondary care setting.
Domperidone will be considered RED on the traffic light system for this indication.
Prescribers should ensure that the patient understands the risks and consents to using domperidone off-label noting the MHRA alert (updated 2019) - https://www.gov.uk/drug-safety-update/domperidone-risks-of-cardiac-side-effects
Primary care prescribers should ensure that patient medication records include any medicine for which prescribing remains the responsibility of secondary or tertiary care. This will ensure that GP records, which are accessed by other healthcare providers, are a true and accurate reflection of the patient's medication
