METOCLOPRAMIDE vs ONDANSETRON

The patient was on both at the hospital, I contacted the prescriber and they are aware of the interaction as well. They said that give

Had a POD2 bowel resection with worsening nausea and some diminished bowel sounds start on metoclopramide. Patient got a single dose which marginally improved nausea and increased bowel sounds.

I have a patient who takes Ziprasidone. Metoclopramide and Promethazine are contraindicated. He says he is already taking Ondansetron, but has been pressuring me to fill the Metoclopramide Rx his Dr sent in because the Ondansetron is not enough. What are some good alternatives?

Would domperidone cancel out the effects of semaglutide? Everyone says the GLP1's work by delaying gastric emptying so what if a patient took motilium on the zempic?

Patient is on zonisamide and has seizures, and was prescribed metoclopramide. Another pharmacist has verified it and it was filled. As far as I know, metoclopramide is contraindicated in patients with epilepsy/seizures. Do you guys know if this is always the case or it can be used with caution and d

Hi, I'm on several routine meds for a couple of chronic diseases and I realized recently while filling my weekly pill box I almost made a big error... Now, chances are that I would have realized the error later when taking those days' meds, but it occurred to me, is there something that I or you guy

(I apologise if and when the formatting looks terrible. Still figuring mobile out) Hi guys. I noticed this sub doesn't have an existing archive of products or supplements for treating IBS. Information can be difficult to obtain and new medicine and products often go unnoticed so let's gather it

Hello everyone, More people than I expected were after my honest experience of the GERD surgery! That is excellent and I wish good luck to anyone going for it... Anyway...

I had absolutely debilitating digestive problems for years (given the IBS diagnosis of exclusion). I went to all of the “top GI docs'' and they had NO answers. They said we don’t know what’s wrong with you. One even told me it was all in my head. Take pill, drink water, eat fiber, take probiotics, e

**FIRST-LINE THERAPY** In terms of medical therapy, the usual approach has been to start an antispasmodic together with a laxative or an antidiarrhoeal depending on the predominant bowel pattern. Antispasmodics in general and specifically hyoscine and peppermint oil have been shown to improve IBS

Hello fellow IBSers, Before I start with this large pile of info I am about to drop, I am going to say that I AM NOT A DOCTOR OR ANY SORT OF MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL. Everything here is from my personal journal I wrote down and experience so your results/symptoms could differ with everyone else. I will

Hi so I bought a course of symprove which is about three months worth. I’m roughly 2/3 of the way through this and thought I’d share my review of how I’ve found it. For context, I have IBS-D, post infectious since two years ago. Diet tends to not really affect my symptoms (I’ve tried most if not al

Been suffering Nausea since April. Had an endoscopy found i only had very mild acid reflux. Been on more than 4 kinds of anti emetics which never helped alleviate the nausea (ondansetron, metroclopromide, motillium, even some vertigo medication). My doctor just keeps changing my medication so i’m
