Metoclopramide is a medication used to treat nausea, vomiting, and other gastrointestinal disorders. It works by increasing the movement of the stomach and intestines to help food move more easily through the digestive system.
How to take metoclopramide:
Metoclopramide is taken orally, usually 30 minutes before meals and at bedtime. The dosage and duration of treatment will depend on the individual’s condition and response to treatment. It is important to take metoclopramide exactly as prescribed and not to stop or change the dosage without consulting a healthcare provider.
Possible side effects of metoclopramide:
Metoclopramide may cause some side effects, including:
Drowsiness
Fatigue
Restlessness
Headache
Nausea
Diarrhea
Dry mouth
Increased urination
If any of these side effects persist or worsen, inform your doctor immediately. Seek emergency medical attention if you experience any signs of a serious allergic reaction, such as rash, itching/swelling (especially of the face/tongue/throat), severe dizziness, or trouble breathing.
Precautions and warnings for metoclopramide:
Before taking metoclopramide, inform your doctor if you have any medical conditions, such as a history of gastrointestinal bleeding, Parkinson’s disease, or kidney disease. Metoclopramide may interact with certain medications, including blood thinners, antidepressants, and certain antibiotics. It is important to inform your doctor of all medications and supplements you are taking.
