Metoclopromide Tablet 10mg
$0.52
Tablet: Per tablet
Metoclopramide is a centrally acting anti-vomitting (antiemetic) medication that stimulates the motility of the upper GI tract. It has minimal effect on the lower GI tract and colon.
Metoclopramide increases peristalsis of the small intestine and increases tone and strength of contractions in the stomach while causing relaxation of the pyloric sphincter.
Consequently, metoclopramide speeds gastric emptying and, possibly, intestinal transit times. It does not stimulare gastric, pancreatic or biliary secretions.
It is used primarily for slow gastric motility and the treatment of vomitting.
Metoclopramide is used to treat nausea, vomitting and reflux disease.
Metoclopramide acts as a central antiemetic by blocking the uptake of dopamine at the chemo-receptor trigger zone in dogs.
Additionally, part of its actions on the upper GI tract include increasing the sphincter pressure in the lower esophagus and reducing gastroesophageal reflux, which also may be helpful for decreasing vomitting.
