In a double-blind cross-over study over eight weeks two groups of 24 patients each with symptoms of chronic postprandial dyspepsia received during the first four-week period either 10 mg domperidon t.i.d. or placebo. After four weeks the medication was exchanged. Despite some improvement of symptoms under placebo, statistical analysis revealed a significantly higher improvement rate after domperidon.
