metoclopramide and Muscle Relaxation

metoclopramide has been researched along with Muscle Relaxation in 14 studies

Metoclopramide: A dopamine D2 antagonist that is used as an antiemetic.
metoclopramide : A member of the class of benzamides resulting from the formal condensation of 4-amino-5-chloro-2-methoxybenzoic acid with the primary amino group of N,N-diethylethane-1,2-diamine.

Muscle Relaxation: That phase of a muscle twitch during which a muscle returns to a resting position.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" Although metoclopramide increased LES and barrier pressures, it did not attenuate cricoid pressure-induced relaxation of the LES and barrier pressures and thus seems to have no value in preventing gastroesophageal reflux during cricoid pressure."3.74Metoclopramide does not attenuate cricoid pressure-induced relaxation of the lower esophageal sphincter in awake volunteers. ( Bruninga, KW; Dodlapatii, J; Joseph, NJ; Salem, MR, 2008)
"Metoclopramide is a useful agent during gastroscopic examination in cases of spasmodic pylorus."2.64The effect of metoclopramide (Primperan) on the pyloric sphincter during gastroscopic examination. A double blind investigation versus placebo. ( Furugård, K; Hradsky, M, 1978)
"Magnesium sulfate was more potent for prolonging myometrial contractile interval than reducing contractile force."1.40Relaxant effects of metoclopramide and magnesium sulfate on isolated pregnant myometrium: an in vitro study. ( Du, Y; Lin, XM; Ma, YS; Ni, J; Tang, YY; Zhou, J, 2014)
"Pretreatment with metoclopramide or with pimozide shifted the volume-pressure diagram of the stomach to the left; that is, at any given volume the pressure was greater after than before these drugs."1.26Dopamine as a possible neurotransmitter in gastric relaxation. ( Valenzuela, JE, 1976)
