Indications and Uses

  1. Nausea and Vomiting:

    • Relief of Symptoms: Metoclopramide is used to alleviate nausea and vomiting associated with various conditions, including gastroenteritis, postoperative nausea, and chemotherapy-induced nausea.
  2. Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD):

    • Symptom Management: It is used to treat symptoms of GERD, such as heartburn and acid regurgitation, by increasing the motility of the upper gastrointestinal tract and helping to prevent acid reflux.
  3. Delayed Gastric Emptying:

    • Gastroparesis: Metoclopramide helps in managing gastroparesis (delayed gastric emptying) by increasing the movement of the stomach and intestines, which can improve symptoms like bloating, nausea, and fullness.
  4. Prevention of Postoperative Nausea:

    • Post-Surgery: It can be used to prevent nausea and vomiting following surgical procedures.

Dosage and Administration

  • Dosage: The usual dose for adults is 10-20 mg taken 3-4 times daily, with the maximum daily dose typically not exceeding 60 mg. For children, dosing is based on weight and age, so it is essential to follow the specific instructions provided by a healthcare provider.
  • Administration: The syrup should be measured using the provided dosing device and taken orally. It is often administered 30 minutes before meals and at bedtime to help manage symptoms effectively.

Precautions

  • Use in Specific Populations: Caution is advised when using metoclopramide in patients with a history of seizures, Parkinson's disease, or other movement disorders due to potential side effects.
  • Duration of Use: Long-term use of metoclopramide is generally avoided due to the risk of developing tardive dyskinesia (a condition characterized by repetitive, involuntary movements).
  • Drug Interactions: Inform your healthcare provider of all other medications you are taking, as metoclopramide can interact with various drugs, including those that affect the central nervous system.

Side Effects

  • Common: Side effects may include drowsiness, fatigue, dizziness, and gastrointestinal symptoms such as diarrhea.
  • Serious: Rare but serious side effects include extrapyramidal symptoms (e.g., tremors, rigidity), tardive dyskinesia, and allergic reactions. Report any severe or unusual symptoms to a healthcare provider.

Monitoring

  • Symptom Relief: Monitor the effectiveness of the medication in relieving nausea, vomiting, and other gastrointestinal symptoms.
  • Adverse Effects: Watch for any signs of serious side effects, particularly movement disorders, and report them to a healthcare provider.

Metoclopramide (Myclosil) 5mg/5ml Gastrokinetic Syrup 60ml is used to manage nausea, vomiting, and delayed gastric emptying, as well as to treat symptoms of GERD. Proper dosing and adherence to medical advice are essential for effective treatment and to minimize potential side effects.
