Not sure how practical this idea is but I am wondering if there is some liquid that can be used in place of N for an anti-emetic test run. In other words, start 48hr ahead regimen with domperidone (also use ondansetron with final dose), ingest 200ml of the test liquid and see if one can keep it down. The test liquid should be non-toxic, bitter and trigger emetic reaction. Maybe I am just being silly but is there any liquid that fits the bill?

Vinegar is sour, not bitter.

9 Bitter Foods That Are Good for You
Bitter foods sometimes get a bad rap in the culinary world, but they may boast a variety of health benefits. Here are 9 bitter foods that are good for your health.

The problem is, it's not the bitterness that will cause vomiting, but the reaction of your system to N, so I think the test is redundant, other than to possibly try and acclimatise yourself to bitter tastes. I don't see any point in trial running the antiemetics though, other than taking a small amount to make sure they don't cause adverse effects.
Thank you.
I am just worried Domperidone (+Ondansetron) will not be enough to keep the N in since there appears to be no data for this. I cannot bring myself to try Meto. Feel stuck between a rock and a hard place :(

I'm in the same position as you, although using amitriptyline cocktail, and probably without Ondansetron. There's a lot of conflicting information out there from supposedly reliable sources. I guess this isn't an exact science, and everyone's body can react differently.
I'm currently in conversation with someone who may be able to help. If I find any better information, I'll let you know.
I did find this very useful resource on domperidone pharmacodynamic properties. It's heavy reading though so I'm still working through it.

If N tastes anything like red wine, then I'm not worried about the taste anymore haha.
