Brief Summary

Gastroparesis is a digestive disorder in which motility of the stomach is either slowed or absent. The gastroparesis prevents normal digestion from occurring. The purpose of this study is to provide oral Domperidone offered under the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) expanded access program, to patients that, based on the treating doctor's assessment, could benefit from , a prokinetic effect for the relief of refractory gastroesophageal reflux disease with upper gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms, gastroparesis, and chronic constipation.
