As I will most likely be starting my ahead regimen with domperidone soon, I wanted to ask a rather personal question. As it is a bit personal, please feel free to PM me in confidence if you prefer.
Both Metoclopramide and Domperidone are gastro-prokinetic, so they increase the speed of emptying of the stomach. Under normal circumstances, food is digested in the stomach before passing to the intestines. If the stomach empties faster, then food won't be fully digested beforehand. As my own bowel movements are somewhat loose at the best of times, I wanted to know if the anti-emetic regimen affects bowel movements, and if so in what way.
Any information or experiences would be greatly appreciated.
Apologies for such a gross question
