Metoclopramide

Generic name: Metoclopramide Hydrochloride

Brand names: Reglan,Primperan, Clopra, Maxolon, Metoclopramide

Why is Metoclopramide prescribed?

Metoclopramide increases the contractions of the stomach and small intestine, helping the passage of food. It is given to treat the symptoms of diabetic gastroparesis, a condition in which the stomach does not contract. These symptoms include vomiting, nausea, heartburn, feeling of indigestion, persistent fullness after meals, and appetite loss. Metoclopramide is also used, for short periods, to treat heartburn in people with gastroesophageal reflux disorder (backflow of stomach contents into the esophagus). In addition, it is given to prevent nausea and vomiting caused by cancer chemotherapy and surgery.

 

Most important fact about Metoclopramide

Metoclopramide may cause mild to severe depression. If you have suffered from depression in the past, make sure your doctor is aware of it. Metoclopramide may not be the best drug for you.

How should you take Metoclopramide?

Metoclopramide is usually taken 30 minutes before a meal. If you suffer from heartburn that occurs only intermittently or only at certain times of day, your doctor may want you to schedule your Metoclopramide therapy around those times.

You will probably take Metoclopramide for only 4 to 12 weeks. Continuous treatment beyond 12 weeks is not recommended.

If you have diabetic "lazy stomach" (gastric stasis) that tends to recur, your doctor may want you to take Metoclopramide at the first sign of a recurrence.

What side effects when taking Metoclopramide may occur?

Side effects cannot be anticipated with Metoclopramide. If any develop or change in intensity, inform your doctor as soon as possible. Only your doctor can determine if it is safe for you to continue taking Metoclopramide.

In addition, Metoclopramide may cause symptoms similar to those of Parkinson's disease, such as slow movements, rigidity, tremor, or a mask-like facial appearance.

Especially in older people, Metoclopramide may produce tardive dyskinesia, a syndrome of jerky or writhing involuntary movements, particularly of the tongue, face, mouth, or jaw. In children and adults under 30, Metoclopramide may cause involuntary movements of the arms and legs, and sometimes loud or labored breathing, usually in the first day or two of treatment.

Metoclopramide may cause intense restlessness with associated symptoms such as anxiety, agitation, foot-tapping, pacing, inability to sit still, jitteriness, and insomnia. These symptoms may disappear as your body gets used to Metoclopramide, or if your dosage is reduced.

Why should Metoclopramide not be prescribed?

Do not take Metoclopramide if you are sensitive to it or have ever had an allergic reaction to Metoclopramide.

You should not take Metoclopramide if you have a condition such as obstruction, perforation, or hemorrhage of the stomach or small bowel that might be aggravated by increased stomach and small-bowel movement.

If you have pheochromocytoma (a nonmalignant tumor that causes hypertension), do not take Metoclopramide; it could trigger a dangerous jump in blood pressure.

Do not take Metoclopramide if you have epilepsy; it could increase the frequency and severity of seizures.

If you are taking a drug that is likely to cause side effects such as tremors, jerks, grimaces, or writhing movements, do not take Metoclopramide; it could make such symptoms more severe.

Metoclopramide is not recommended for patients under 18 years of age.

Special warnings about Metoclopramide

If you have Parkinson's disease, you should be given Metoclopramide cautiously or not at all, since the drug may make your Parkinson's symptoms worse.

Because Metoclopramide may make you drowsy and impair your coordination, you should not drive, climb, or perform hazardous tasks until you know how the medication affects you.

Use Metoclopramide with caution if you have high blood pressure. Be careful, too, if you have cirrhosis or congestive heart failure. Under these conditions, Metoclopramide may cause fluid retention and heart problems. If this happens during the first few weeks of Metoclopramide therapy, you'll have to stop taking Metoclopramide.
