Compro (Prochlorperazine Rectal) - Indications and Dosage

 
 



INDICATIONS AND USAGE

Prochlorperazine 25mg suppositories are indicated in the control of severe nausea and vomiting in adults.

DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION

Adults: Dosage should be increased more gradually in debilitated or emaciated patients.

Elderly Patients: In general, dosages in the lower range are sufficient for most elderly patients. Since they appear to be more susceptible to hypotension and neuromuscular reactions, such patients should be observed closely. Dosage should be tailored to the individual, response carefully monitored and dosage adjusted accordingly. Dosage should be increased more gradually in elderly patients.

To Control Severe Nausea and Vomiting: Adjust dosage to the response of the individual. Begin with the lowest recommended dosage.

Rectal Dosage: 25 mg twice daily.
