Gastractiv 1 MG Drops 30 ML contain domperidone (1 mg), which works on the body as follows:

• Dopamine Receptor Blocker: Domperidone acts by blocking dopamine receptors present in the digestive system and brain. Blocking these receptors in the digestive system promotes smoother food passage through the stomach and intestines.

• Muscle Movement Enhancement: By blocking dopamine receptors, domperidone causes the muscles at the stomach entrance to tighten and those at its exit to relax. This facilitates improved movement of food through the gastrointestinal tract.

• Nausea Reduction: The blockage of dopamine receptors in the brain reduces messages that trigger feelings of nausea, thereby helping manage nausea symptoms effectively.

• Keep Gastractiv 1 MG Drops 30 ML in a cool, dry place at room temperature.

• Shield it from direct sunlight and moisture.

• Remember to keep the bottle firmly sealed when not in use.

• Always keep the drops out of your child's reach.

• Make sure to use Gastractiv 1 MG Drops 30 ML before the expiry date printed on the bottle.

• To help manage your child's gastrointestinal symptoms, ensure they consume a balanced diet rich in fibre. This can help speed up digestion and reduce instances of indigestion or bloating.

• Encourage your child to drink lots of fluids throughout the day. Adequate hydration can aid digestion and prevent constipation, further reducing discomfort related to gastrointestinal issues managed by Gastractiv 1 MG Drops 30 ML.
