Does Domperidone Medication Cause Diarrhea?

I am taking Dexilant and Domperidone and have been having diarrhea since I added the Domperidone. I have had the explosive diarrhea for two weeks. I stopped the Domperidone about four days ago, but am still having the diarrhea. I was taking digestive enzymes, but stopped those also. I was on the Dexilant before we added the other things, and wasn t having diarrhea. I was switched from Nexium (which I had been taking for many years) because of severe stomach pain and sweats from the pain. The diarrhea didn t start until the Domperidone was added when the pain returned, but it is continuing even though I stopped the Domperidone several days ago.
