Domperidone can be classed as an anti-sickness medication. It belongs to a group of drugs named dopamine-2 receptor antagonists. This inhibition of dopamine receptors in our body allows it to act as a prokinetic (medicines that increase the speed of food passage in the digestive system) and an antiemetic agent (medicines that reduce nausea and vomiting).

Naproxen is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug that reduces pain and inflammation. It works by inhibiting enzymes called COX-1 and COX-2. This lowers the synthesis of prostaglandins (hormone-like chemicals responsible for pain and inflammation). Its analgesic properties are attributed to its ability to lower levels of prostaglandin in the tissue and blood.
