  • Title: Improved image quality during abdominal ultrasonography by clebopride + simethicone.
    Author: Varas MJ, López A.
    Journal: Methods Find Exp Clin Pharmacol; 1991; 13(1):69-72. PubMed ID: 1870360.
    Abstract:
    The use of clebopride + simethicone (Flatoril) was assessed as a possible solution to the problem of ultrasound imaging of the pancreas area. A statistically significant improvement was found in head and body imaging of the pancreas (76%). This is due to simethicone's antiflatulence effect and the movement of gas towards the intestine and colon as a result of clebopride's gastrointestinal emptying effect.
