  • Title: [Prokinetic drugs].
    Author: Hellström P.
    Journal: Nord Med; 1992; 107(11):274-7. PubMed ID: 1448341.
    Abstract:
    Prokinetic drugs--preparations that stimulate gastro-intestinal motility--constitute a relatively new concept in medical therapy, chiefly represented by the products cisapride and metoclopramide. This review consists in an account of the physiological regulation of motility in the upper gastro-intestinal tract where prokinetic drugs are considered to exert their most significant effect, and the therapeutic effects demonstrable in treatment with these drugs.
