01Milk excretion after Motilium 10 mg
Domperidone is excreted in human breast milk after oral Motilium 10 mg. Breast-fed infants receive less than 0.1% of the maternal weight-adjusted dose. Cardiac effects in the infant cannot be excluded. The decision is whether to discontinue breast-feeding or to discontinue Motilium. A 10 mg tablet is one labelled strength on that carton.
