  2. Prokinetic agent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prokinetic_agent

    Activation of a wide range of serotonin receptors by serotonin itself or by certain prokinetic drugs results in enhanced gastrointestinal motility. [ 3 ] Other prokinetic drugs may increase acetylcholine concentrations by stimulating the M 1 receptor which causes acetylcholine release, or by inhibiting the enzyme acetylcholinesterase which ...

  3. Norepinephrine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norepinephrine

    Drugs in this group that are capable of entering the brain often have strong sedating effects, due to their inhibitory effects on the locus coeruleus. [50] Clonidine and guanfacine , for example, are used for the treatment of anxiety disorders and insomnia, and also as a sedative premedication for patients about to undergo surgery. [ 51 ]

  4. Motilin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motilin

    Motilin is a 22-amino acid polypeptide hormone in the motilin family that, in humans, is encoded by the MLN gene. [2]Motilin is secreted by endocrine Mo cells [3] [4] (also referred to as M cells, which are not the same as the M cells, or microfold cells, found in Peyer's patches) that are numerous in crypts of the small intestine, especially in the duodenum and jejunum. [5]

  5. Cisapride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cisapride

    Cisapride is a gastroprokinetic agent, a drug that increases motility in the upper gastrointestinal tract. It acts directly as a serotonin 5-HT 4 receptor agonist and indirectly as a parasympathomimetic. Stimulation of the serotonin receptors increases acetylcholine release in the enteric nervous system.

  6. Roemheld syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roemheld_syndrome

    Alpha blockers may increase GI motility if that is an issue, also 5 mg to 10 mg amitriptyline if motility is an issue that can't be solved by other methods; Antigas - simethicone, beano, omnimax reduces epigastric pressure

  7. Naltrexone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naltrexone

    The most common side effects reported with naltrexone are gastrointestinal complaints such as diarrhea and abdominal cramping. [3] These adverse effects are analogous to the symptoms of opioid withdrawal, as the μ-opioid receptor blockade will increase gastrointestinal motility. The side effects of naltrexone by incidence are as follows: [3]

  8. Mosapride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mosapride

    Mosapride is a gastroprokinetic agent that acts as a selective 5HT 4 agonist.The major active metabolite of mosapride, known as M1, additionally acts as a 5HT 3 antagonist, [1] which accelerates emptying throughout the whole of the gastrointestinal tract in humans, [2] and is used for the treatment of gastritis, gastroesophageal reflux disease, functional dyspepsia [3] and irritable bowel ...

  9. Tamsulosin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tamsulosin

    Tamsulosin is a selective α 1 receptor antagonist that has preferential selectivity for the α 1A receptor in the prostate versus the α 1B receptor in the blood vessels. [ 25 ] When alpha 1 receptors in the bladder neck, prostate, ureter, and urethra are blocked, a relaxation in smooth muscle tissue results. [ 16 ]
