“…Several of these drugs have been shown to block the inhibitory action of dopamine and dopamine agonists on prolactin secretion by pituitary cells in vitro (Macleod & Lehmeyer, 1974;Yeo, Thomer, Jones, Lowry & Besser, 1979), and binding studies have suggested that these drugs may act as antagonists at dopamine receptors on these cells (Creese, Burt & Snyder, 1975;1976;Calabro & Macleod, 1978;Caron, Beaulieu, Raymond, Gagne, Drovin, Lefkowitz & Labrie, 1978). In this study, we have investigated the in vitro dose-response relationships of four drugs that are known prolactin secretagogues in vivo: chlorpromazine, a phenothiazine; haloperidol, a butyrophenone; metoclopramide, a substituted benzamide; and domperidone, a new anti-emetic structurally related to pimozide (Swann, Thompson & Qureshi, 1979). We have demonstrated that all four 0007-1188/80/140569-05 101.00 appear to act as competitive antagonists to dopamine at low concentrations, but paradoxically reduce prolactin secretion in the absence of dopamine when administered at high concentration.…”

“…In two of these studies a comparison with domperidone was included, and metoclopramide was superior in patients receiving CMF [101] but not in those receiving doxorubicin [8]. Single intravenous doses of metoclopramide 10-20 mg were not different from placebo in effect [97] or were equal [31,117] or inferior [38,109] to single doses of domperidone, and inferior to multiple doses of dexamethasone [97]. In three recent trials, metoclopramide given as a loading dose of 60-80 mg i.v.…”

“…Domperidone is used for nausea and vomiting [10] associated with migraine [11], gastroparesis [12], in combination with levodopa in the management of Parkinson's disease [13], functional dyspepsia [14], in lactation acting as an antidopaminergic agent to promote lactation [15,16].…”
