How should I take Compro (Prochlorperazine)?
Take prochlorperazine exactly as directed by your doctor. If you do not understand these instructions, ask your pharmacist, nurse, or doctor to explain them to you. Take each dose with a full glass (8 ounces) of water. Prochlorperazine can be taken with or without food or milk. Do not crush, break, or chew the sustained-release capsules. Swallow them whole. They are specially formulated to release slowly in your body. Mix the concentrate with 2 to 4 ounces of water, soda, juice, milk, or semisolid food such as applesauce or pudding. Shake the liquid form of prochlorperazine well before measuring a dose. To ensure that you get a correct dose, measure the suspension with a special dose-measuring spoon or cup, not with a regular tablespoon. If you do not have a dose-measuring device, ask your pharmacist where you can get one. Do not let the liquid form of prochlorperazine touch your skin or clothes. Do not mix the liquid with coffee, tea, cola, grape, or apple juice. The suppositories are
