  • Title: Gastric emptying in gastroesophageal reflux and the therapeutic role of prokinetic agents.
    Author: McCallum RW.
    Journal: Gastroenterol Clin North Am; 1990 Sep; 19(3):551-64. PubMed ID: 1977702.
    Abstract:
    The author discusses the role of prokinetic agents, such as bethanechol, metoclopramide, domperidone, and cisipride in the management of gastroesophageal reflux disease. These agents address the upper gastrointestinal motility disturbances that contribute to this disease and therefore have an important role in the acute and long-term medical management of reflux esophagitis.
