My GI recommends it strongly , but the pd doc is silent. I take ropinerole with compulsive eating as a side effect in spite of the gastric problems. Will my compulsion worsten with taking another dopa agonist?

As I understand it , domperidone is taken to help with sickness which is a side effect of one of your other meds. I was prescribed it when I had sickness when taking a med I am no longer on..I was told not to take it for a long period of time. I did find it helped.

If you google this, I am sure you will find the information you want.

Hi,

I also take the dompery, aka Motillium, i take it for sickness due to ropinarol, i have been sick from the first day i started ropinarol, i now have to take sinimet , still feel sick , but what the hell , i just get on with it, hope your sickness dies down

Regards

Al

I have researched the drug on line. It is personal experiences that I want to find out about from this source.

Thank you for your positive response. I feel encouraged to try this additional med. I still haven't had a response from my PD doc.

I've been taking Requipxl 16mg daily for 8 yrs since I was dxd. I have experienced bouts of 'binge eating' over the lst 2.5yrs which my support team think is the cause. I wonder....Perhaps sometimes it might be useful not to have a list of possible side-effects about meds as this could trigger the inappropriate behaviour. Some time ago I was prescribed Lyrica for PD pain. I put on 2stone in 2 months & rising. Have you tried Omeprazole. 20mg capsule? They seem to be the major anti-nausea treatment in this part of UK & they work (for most of us). Also I have found that my nausea is usually associated with dizziness: it's chicken & egg time.
