What are Metoclopramide infusions/injections?

Metoclopramide injections are a type of treatment administered either intravenously (IV) or intramuscularly (IM), which contains a medication used to treat gastrointestinal disorders. Metoclopramide is an antiemetic, meaning it helps prevent and treat nausea and vomiting. It works by stimulating the motility of the gastrointestinal tract, facilitating stomach emptying and reducing symptoms of nausea and vomiting, and also having a beneficial effect on gastroesophageal reflux.

Benefits of Metoclopramide Infusions/Injections

Metoclopramide injections offer numerous benefits, including:

Rapid relief of nausea and vomiting associated with conditions such as migraines, chemotherapy, or surgery
Stimulates peristaltic movements of the stomach and intestines, improving digestion and preventing food stagnation
Helps treat gastroesophageal reflux and gastrointestinal motility disorders
Effective in treating dyspepsia (indigestion) and certain digestive tract disorders

How do Metoclopramide Infusions/Injections work?

Metoclopramide works by blocking dopamine receptors in the brain and stimulating serotonin receptors, which leads to a reduction in the sensation of nausea and vomiting. This medication also stimulates the motility of the gastrointestinal tract, accelerating the emptying of the stomach and promoting the movement of food through the intestine. In addition, Metoclopramide increases the tone of the lower esophageal sphincter, thus preventing acid reflux and helping to relieve symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux.

Indications for Metoclopramide infusions/injections

Metoclopramide injections are indicated for:

Treatment of nausea and vomiting caused by various conditions, such as migraines, chemotherapy, postoperative or gastrointestinal disorders
Prevention and treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)
Stimulates intestinal motility in cases of dyspepsia (indigestion) and delayed gastric emptying (gastroparesis)
Treatment of gastrointestinal motility disorders, such as irritable bowel syndrome

Contraindications for Metoclopramide infusions/injections

Metoclopramide injections are not recommended in the following cases:

People with hypersensitivity to Metoclopramide or any of the components of the drug
Patients with mechanical gastrointestinal obstruction or perforation
People with epilepsy or a history of severe neurological disorders, as Metoclopramide may increase the risk of seizures
Pregnancy and lactation (its use is contraindicated especially in the first trimester of pregnancy and should be carefully evaluated during the rest of the period)
