Metoclopramide HCl

Metoclopramide is given to help with the quick passage of food through the upper digestive tract. It may be prescribed in animals with disorders of the upper gastrointestinal tract, such as acid reflux disease.

Metoclopramide is often used as an anti-vomiting drug. In otherwise healthy pets that have a chronic vomiting problem due to delayed gastric emptying, Metoclopramide helps reduce the delay by speeding up the passage of food. Chronic vomiting of this type is typically characterized by a small amount of yellowish bile vomit, usually in the mornings.
