Domperidone acts by increasing the motility of the stomach and intestines so that acid does not reflux back into the food pipe. Esomeprazole works by binding to this proton pump in stomach cells and blocks the acid secretion.
Domperidone is a specific blocker of dopamine receptors. It speeds gastrointestinal peristalsis, causes prolactin release, and is used as antiemetic and tool in the study of dopaminergic mechanisms. Side effects include galactorrhea, gynecomastia, or menstrual irregularities.
Esomeprazole is extensively metabolized in the liver by the cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzyme system. The major part of esomeprazole's metabolism is dependent upon the CYP2C19 isoenzyme, which forms the hydroxy and desmethyl metabolites. The remaining amount is dependent on CYP3A4 which forms the sulphone metabolite.
Most side effects do not require any medical attention and disappear as your body adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if they persist or if you’re worried about them
