"The present trial was designed to compare the effect of metoclopramide(MCP) + dexamethasone(DM) (Method A) with that of MCP + DM + lorazepam(Lor) (Method B) in the treatment of CDDP (cis-diamminedichloroplatinum)-induced nausea and vomiting in a randomized fashion."5.06[Anti-emetic treatment with metoclopramide and other drugs during CDDP therapy]. ( Arai, R; Furuse, K; Hayashi, S; Kawahara, M; Kiyota, T; Kodama, N; Tsuruta, S, 1987)
"Four consecutive trials were undertaken to study lorazepam at each of three dosage levels and diphenhydramine when used in combination with iv metoclopramide and dexamethasone in patients receiving cisplatin at 120 mg/m2."2.66Consecutive dose-finding trials adding lorazepam to the combination of metoclopramide plus dexamethasone: improved subjective effectiveness over the combination of diphenhydramine plus metoclopramide plus dexamethasone.
