Hello and thank you for trusting HCM!

All these symptoms you mentioned are domperidone side effects. It might give you headache, dizziness, menstrual cycle disorders, swelling ankles, irregular heart rate etc. You must see your treating doctor and tell him for these symptoms. Instead of domperidone you may try Ranitidine 150mg twice a day, but your treating doctor may suggest you something else.
If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate.
Best regards.
Dr Eriol.
