Hi,

Perinorm prevents vomiting by speeding up stomach emptying and movement of intestines.

It can be used in children but avoid using it for a long period. I would suggest you to use the drug as prescribed by the physician and not more than the prescribed period.

Domperidone is also a drug used for vomiting and has fewer side effects than perinorm. Domperidone can also be considered if perinorm is not desirable.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
