BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES Delayed emesis with cisplatin is a significant problem, which is often poorly controlled with conventional antiemetics. There is a relative paucity of data on the control of delayed emesis and rather inconsistent results have been reported. The present study aimed to compare the efficacy and tolerability of ondansetron versus metoclopramide in dose related grades of cisp...

UNLABELLED Domperidone (dopamine antagonist), metoclopramide and clebopride (both dopamine antagonists and stimulators of the intramural cholinergic system), and trimebutine (spasmolytic) are used in the treatment of digestive disorders such as dyspepsia or gastritis. Our aim was to compare the effects of these compounds on the isolated intact gastroduodenal preparation of the guinea pig. Dompe...

This study was designed to investigate the role of dopaminergic mechanisms in the control of aldosterone secretion in man. Five normal male subjects in metabolic balance at 150 meq sodium/d and 60 meq potassium/d constant intake received the specific dopamine antagonist, metoclopramide, 10 mg i.v. on 2 consecutive d. On the 1st d, the subjects received an infusion of 5% glucose solution (vehicl...

The anti-emetic properties of metoclopramide were investigated by means of a doubleblind trial in normal labour in 584 women. The drug was also compared with an established anti-emetic drug, perphenazine. All patients were given pethidine as an analgesic. The incidence of vomiting after metoclopramide 10 mg or perphenazine 5 mg was significantly less than after normal saline. The incidences aft...

The report planned to design plus valuate mucoadhesive buccal patches of Metoclopramide for orthopedic treatment pain and inflammations. All eight formulation acquire numerous evaluation parameters, it used be complete which F1 confirmed good strength, encouraging pressurized arrant drug release, easiest In-vivo residence time, swelling index pH shows the best formulation. acquired in vivo effe...

The effect of acute migraine attack and rectally given metoclopramide on the absorption of orally given tolfenamic acid (300 mg) was investigated in seven female patients in a crossover study consisting of four phases, two without migraine and two during migraine. Metoclopramide hydrochloride (20 mg) or placebo was given double-blind. Migraine attacks delayed the absorption of tolfenamic acid. ...

Introduction: Postoperative nausea & vomiting (PONV) are common distressing complications of anaesthesia. Pain ,nausea frequently listed by the patient as their most important postoperative concerns. PONV results in increased patientÂ’s discomfort and dissatisfaction. Despite continuing advances anaesthetic surgical technique, both incidence severity remain relatively unchanged. Material Me...

The objective of this study was to evaluate the physical and chemical stability of mixtures of undiluted palonosetron hydrochloride 50 micrograms/mL with undiluted metoclopramide hydrochloride 5 mg/mL and with promethazine hydrochloride 2 mg/mL diluted in 5% dextrose injection during simulated Y-site administration. Triplicate test samples were prepared by admixing 7.5 mL of palonosetron hydroc...

BACKGROUND Extrapyramidal syndromes (EPS) are clinically relevant side effects of metoclopramide which are often not anticipated. PATIENTS AND METHODS Two patients who received metoclopramide developed an acute dystonic reaction. Symptoms disappeared after biperiden or trihexyphenidyl were given. Molecular analysis of the CYP2D6 gene was performed using a PCR-based method. RESULTS Both pati...

Ibuprofen is an effective, cheap, and frequently used non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug. The present study investigated the doseand time-dependent effects of ibuprofen on hepatic, renal, and hematological functions in rats. Groups of rats (n=6) were given ibuprofen (20, 40 mgkg -1 day -1 ) for 7, 14 or 28 days; or vehicle (control), orally. Blood samples were obtained, and hematological indi...
