Description

Compro 25 mg suppositories contain prochlorperazine maleate, an antiemetic and antipsychotic agent primarily used to manage nausea, vomiting, and vertigo. This dosage form is designed for rectal administration, providing an alternative route when oral intake is not possible or practical. The suppository facilitates rapid absorption through the rectal mucosa, allowing effective symptom control.

Each suppository delivers 25 mg of the active ingredient, suitable for adult and pediatric use under medical guidance. The formulation acts by blocking dopamine receptors in the brain’s chemoreceptor trigger zone, thereby reducing nausea and vomiting. It exerts mild sedative and antipsychotic effects through central nervous system action.

Compro suppositories are often employed in the treatment of motion sickness, postoperative nausea, migraine-associated vomiting, and chemotherapy-induced emesis. This route bypasses gastrointestinal disturbances, making it beneficial for patients unable to tolerate oral medications due to vomiting or other gastrointestinal conditions.
