Anti-emetic & Prokinetic Drugs v Anti-emetic drugs: ØPrevent or treat nausea and vomiting v Prokinetic drugs: ØEnhance coordinated motility and transit of materials in the GIT 9: 50 12/17/2021 PM 2
Anti-emetics; General remarks v Choice of the anti-emetic depends on aetiology v Identify the cause v Treat the cause 9: 50 12/17/2021 PM 3

Mechanisms of nausea and vomiting q. Two sites involved in the vomiting reflex: v. Vomiting centre: Ø In the reticular formation in the medulla v. Chemoreceptor trigger zone (CTZ): Ø In the 4 th ventricle 9: 50 12/17/2021 PM 5
The vomiting centre v Coordinates motor activity of vomiting reflex v Receives stimuli from: ØCTZ ØVestibular system of the ear ØPeripheral systems (GIT, CVS, GUS) ØCerebral cortex (e. g. odour, colour) v Its neurotransmitters are: ØAch (M 1) & Histamine (H 1) 9: 50 12/17/2021 PM 6

Metoclopramide (Plasil) v Good anti-emetic v Superior to phenothiazines in emesis of GIT disorders (gastric, duodenal, liver, biliary) v Has central and peripheral actions: ØCentral: D 2 Blockade in CTZ ØPeripheral: enhances action of Ach at M 3 receptors in the gut 9: 50 12/17/2021 PM 17
Metoclopramide v Prokinetic v Enhances gastric emptying: ØIncreases lower oesophageal sphincter tone ØIncreases peristalsis & emptying of stomach and upper gut ØRelaxes pyloric antrum 9: 50 12/17/2021 PM 18
Indications of metoclopramide q Nausea and vomiting associated with: GIT diseases v Cytotoxic therapy v Radiotherapy v Migraine q As prokinetic: v ØIncreases GIT motility ØBefore emergency anaesthesia, labour 9: 50 12/17/2021 PM 19

General remarks v Identify the cause v Treat the cause: ØKetacidosis, digoxin or antiepileptic toxicity v Drug combination is useful as: ØDexamethasone with metoclopramide ØDexamethasone with ondansetron v Lorazepam used as adjunct 9: 50 12/17/2021 PM 35
