Compassionate Use of Domperidone for Refractory Gastroparesis
This program is for young people aged 12 to 21 who have severe symptoms from gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) or other stomach motility problems, like nausea, vomiting, or severe indigestion. These are people whose conditions haven't improved with standard treatments. The study aims to see if domperidone, taken four times a day, can help reduce the severity of these symptoms. Doctors will adjust the dose of domperidone based on your body weight. The main goal is to see how much your disease severity changes over up to one year. This study plans to include 20 participants, but its current status is unclear.
