1351 ValerieMoreheadTXUSIt is crazy that there is only one med in the us for gastroparesis & it has horrible side effects. I am suffering and need the domperidone, please let the doctors and patients make the decision to be able to take it for some sense of a normal life.

1355 MarvaSartwellMOUSMy daughter has gastroparesis which makes her feel sick every day of her life. She needs this medicine.

1357 MichelleMartinezINUSPlease approve Domperidone for use in the US. If you suffered from Gastroparesis, you would want to have options too. I was recently diagnosed and am not responding well to Reglan. I see that there are not many options out there, and to have to resort to feeding tubes is a miserable thing for anyone to go through. Please help give hope to those of us who are struggling terribly with this plague of a disorder. Thank you.

1363 AnonymousAnonymousTXUSI need domperidone now.
1364 AnonymousAnonymousOHUSI used this for increasing milk supply. I tried Reglan and it was HORRIBLE, caused great depression. Domperidone needs to be FDA approved. It has WAY fewer (none for me) side effects. Reglan should be the one they take off the FDA approval list!

1366 AnonymousAnonymousNJUSReglan, the competing prokinetic has the potential for severe neurological side-effects, and yet it remains FDA approved. Please allow an easier compassionate use IND to occur for domperidone. We cannot find any doctors who are doing compassionate use IND for children.

1369 RyanLawrenceCOUSHow can this drug not be approved for Gastroparesis? There are so many people in need.
1370 ChristineBushIAUSreglan didn't work for me at all. domperidone has given me my life back. my GP is quite severe & until i was put on domperidone, i vomited every single meal. i am horrified that the fda continues to make this life-saving drug inaccesible to those who are trying to regain some sort of quality of life. reprehensible!
1371 AnonymousAnonymousNYUSSave my stomach from removal! I get severe GI bleeds because acid backs up into my neo-esophagus (colon interposition) causing ulcers. I am on a puree diet, lost 7 lbs in 3 months and don't have much more I can lose. There is no reason why a positive resulting medicine like this should be unavailable in the most developed country in the world, yet Reglan with its proven side effects is still available. 4% of this country suffers from gastroparesis in some way shape or form, help those millions of people who need it!

1373 JenniferZampognaIDUSThe side effects of Reglan were awful. So much so I couldn't take it as perscribed. The Domperidone seems to be working with "no" side effects. My husband and I all ready have all the children we are going to have and breastfeeding is no longer a concern for me. Please hear our plea for Domperidone, for many of us it's our only chance at a sumwhat normal life!
1374 BenPatersonINUSMy daughter has been sick for years, and recently we finally received the Dx: gastro paresis, and the only med that works is domperidone - Reglan had life-threatening side effects. She needs domperidone and it as given her a new life! Please approve domperidone in the US
1375 AimeeCraneVAUSIt is morally reprehensible that this proven safe and effective drug is not available in the USA. Change the law NOW.
1376 PatrickKerberWAUSIt is incredible that the FDA has not approved a drug that does so much good for so many people. My mom is a patient and we have to order the drug from Canada. Get off the stick!
1377 RaymondKotNYUSPlease approve this drug, my father needs it.
1378 MaribelTehraniNJUSI have been suffering from lupus induced gastroparesis for years now and Domperidone is the only drug that has restored my quality of life from this dibilitating disease. Please approve it so that my insurance will reimburse me for it. Thank you.
1379 M. A.McPhersonNHUSPlease allow this medication to be distributed in the US. Patients with gastroparesis are in pain, have difficulty keeping jobs, maintaining their family responsibilities and need this medication to get their lives back Thank you.
1380 FlaviaAdamsCTUSThis would help a lot of people.

1383 ElaineJeffersonMAUSIt's important that people who have problems with food intake be able to get medicine that can help them. The Governement should not hold back.
1384 CindyUrbanARUS
1385 AnnaJonesILI have gastroparesis.
1386 Ann-MarieMerkleyUTUSPLease approve this medication.
1387 DebraJacobsOHUS
1388 JanicePuckettKYUSi have a family member who has severe gastroparesis which is unresponsive to anything the drs have to offer--gets domperidone from research physician and orders out of country. Must travel 5 hours to see physician at research hospital who can help her. Costs are not covered by insurance. This medicine should be approved for these severe cases. Domperidone means life for her.
1389 SallyDowlingNZHi from New Zealand, I recently had my 5th baby. All my children have been very large babies and very hungry to go with it. I was unable to breastfeed any of my 1st 4 children past 7 months. It wasnt till I had number 5 that my new midwife prescribed me domperidone to increase my milk supply. I have found it extremely helpful and would recommend it to anyone struggling to continue breastfeeding. I have had no side effects at all. It has helped me to enjoy feeding my daughter and encourages me to continue as long as I want. I really feel for those of you that it is not available to.

1391 JenniferDavisOHUSThis drug has done wonders for my milk supply. I suffered from decrease supply after going back to work full time and restarting my cycle. I now have more than enough milk to keep my baby satisfied.
1392 TwanettePriceNYUS
1393 ShannonColbyMIUSAs a breastfeeding mother who has problems with breast milk supply, I think this drug should be allowed for those of us who experience low milk supply. Especially when nothing else (and I mean NOTHING ELSE) is working.
1394 CourtneyDavisMSUS
1395 AnnaTHEISENFLUS
1396 AnonymousAnonymousNHUSPlease put Domperidome on the approved list. This drug is safer than Reglan which my daughter has been on for 4 years for gastroparesis.
1397 MichaelSoutiereVTUS
1398 AnonymousAnonymousNYUSI take antispasmodics for a terribly painful condition called SOD. Reglan is not enough to keep my food down and at high doses, the side effects and problems with cessation of Reglan can me horrible. Domperidone needs to be available to people with severe GI motility issues like me.
1399 Q.OsborneNYUS
1400 DonThompsonCAUSWe have to get Domperidone from Canada right now. It is the only long term solution for my wife for gastroparesis.
