Hello @001sarahsantana and welcome to Mayo Connect. The medication you mentioned is medication that needs to be prescribed by a doctor. Here is some information about it from the Drugs.com website,
https://www.drugs.com/domperidone.html
Did your doctor give you a prescription for this medication? Do you live outside of the U.S.?

I live in U.S, he recommended it but did not give me a prescription is there a way to buy it in US with a prescription? I believe I would have to file a form to the US FDA to be approved for what I know. But I wonder if there is a drugstore already doing it.

Thanks,

Sarah

Thank you, I will contact my doctor to see if he wants to do that.

@hopeful33250 @001sarahsantana yes, drugs.com is a very helpful website. Gives you good information on all medications so I have registered with their online newsletter too. I even have all my drugs listed on that site, and it shows me if I have any interactions to them! They also have a pill identifier page which is helpful if you are not sure your prescription has been filled correctly with the right pill/capsule. I love that site!
