Metoclopramide is used to treat the symptoms of a certain type of stomach problem called gastroparesis in patients with diabetes. It works by increasing the movements or contractions of the stomach and intestines. It relieves symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, heartburn, a feeling of fullness after meals, and loss of appetite. Metoclopramide is also used to treat heartburn for patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). GERD is esophageal irritation from the backward flow of gastric acid into the esophagus.
Metoclopramide is given to help with the quick passage of food through the upper digestive tract. It may be used to treat disorders of the upper gasto-intestinal tract such as acid reflux disease. Metoclopramide is often used as an anti-vomiting drug.In otherwise healthy pets that have a chronic vomiting problem due to delayed gastric emptying, Metoclopramide helps reduce the delay by speeding up the passage of food.otility can be inconsistent or abnormal due to a number of disorders. Reduced motility leads to a build-up of food in the stomach which causes bloating and nausea. Metoclopramide increases the release of acetylcholine, which in turn stimulates the smooth muscle in the digestive tract to contract more frequently.
