Method Has anyone ever tried metoclopramide syrup as antiemetic?

[urbanmermaid]

From everything I've read, the antiemetics used are in tablet form. But I've just orderd a metoclopramide hydrochloride in syrup form. I think it's mostly used for dogs. Would it be as effective? I'm also planning to get Domperidone in tablet form in case I can go out and go to the pharmacy.

Sure, why wouldn't it be?

Thanks. I've just never seen anyone mention meto in syrup form on here and it also says prokinetics instead of antiemetic, so I wanted to make sure. I was wondering if someone else has tried the syrup form and if adjustments have to be made with the dose. Thank you.

meto is both a prokinetic and antiemetic. No need to adjust the dose - it is the same thing.
