Working Mechanism Of The Drug

Domperidone is the active salt that is mainly responsible for the drug action. This domperidone is an antagonist of the dopamine which is antiemetic. This means that it helps to prevent frequent throwing up sessions and also nausea. Also, this drug has the property of stimulating the mobility of the gastrointestinal tract.

But in what instances can nausea and other related problems happen? Both these occur when the CTZ or the chemoreceptor zone of the brain gets the stimulation. This stimulation is mainly caused and it sends the impulses for the vomiting reflex. 

The zone of chemoreceptors is activated either through the messages sent through the nerve impulses or thought the hormonal balance that brings a stimulation for actin in the neurological region. The role of the drug is to block the chemicals. When the messengers do not act or are not sent there is no transmission or the trigger in the brain to start the response of vomiting.

The same way the Vomistop 10 mg also blocks these chemical messengers in the upper intestinal part of the digestive tract. The mobility which might have slowed backs gets back to its normal pace with the contraction of the muscles. The food then gets pushed through the GIT and prevents any further vomiting.
