  • New Developments in Prokinetic Therapy for Gastric Motility Disorders
    REVIEW published: 24 August 2021 doi: 10.3389/fphar.2021.711500 New Developments in Prokinetic Therapy for Gastric Motility Disorders Michael Camilleri* and Jessica Atieh Clinical Enteric Neuroscience Translational and Epidemiological Research (CENTER), Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN, United States Prokinetic agents amplify and coordinate the gastrointestinal muscular contractions to facilitate the transit of intra-luminal content. Following the institution of dietary recommendations, prokinetics are the first medications whose goal is to improve gastric emptying and relieve symptoms of gastroparesis. The recommended use of metoclopramide, the only currently approved medication for gastroparesis in the United States, is for a duration of less than 3 months, due to the risk of reversible or irreversible extrapyramidal tremors. Domperidone, a dopamine D2 receptor antagonist, is available for prescription through the FDA’s program for Expanded Access to Investigational Drugs. Macrolides are used off label and are associated with tachyphylaxis and variable duration of efficacy. Aprepitant relieves some symptoms of gastroparesis. There are newer agents in the pipeline targeting diverse gastric (fundic, antral and pyloric) motor functions, including novel serotonergic 5-HT4 agonists, dopaminergic D2/3 antagonists, neurokinin NK1 antagonists, and ghrelin agonist.

  • Therapeutic Class Overview Irritable Bowel Syndrome Agents
    Therapeutic Class Overview Irritable Bowel Syndrome Agents Therapeutic Class Overview/Summary: This review will focus on agents used for the treatment of Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS).1-5 IBS is a gastrointestinal syndrome characterized primarily by non-specific chronic abdominal pain, usually described as a cramp-like sensation, and abnormal bowel habits, either constipation or diarrhea, in which there is no organic cause. Other common gastrointestinal symptoms may include gastroesophageal reflux, dysphagia, early satiety, intermittent dyspepsia and nausea. Patients may also experience a wide range of non-gastrointestinal symptoms. Some notable examples include sexual dysfunction, dysmenorrhea, dyspareunia, increased urinary frequency/urgency and fibromyalgia-like symptoms.6 IBS is defined by one of four subtypes. IBS with constipation (IBS-C) is the presence of hard or lumpy stools with ≥25% of bowel movements and loose or watery stools with <25% of bowel movements. When IBS is associated with diarrhea (IBS-D) loose or watery stools are present with ≥25% of bowel movements and hard or lumpy stools are present with <25% of bowel movements. Mixed IBS (IBS-M) is defined as the presence of hard or lumpy stools with ≥25% and loose or water stools with ≥25% of bowel movements. Final subtype, or unsubtyped, is all other cases of IBS that do not fall into the other classes. Pharmacological therapy for IBS depends on subtype.7 While several over-the-counter or off-label prescription agents are used for the treatment of IBS, there are currently only two agents approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of IBS-C and three agents approved by the FDA for IBS-D.

  • Prophylactic Antiemetic Therapy with Ondansetron, Granisetron and Metoclopramide in Patients Undergoing Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy Under GA
    JK SCIENCE ORIGINAL ARTICLE Prophylactic Antiemetic Therapy with Ondansetron, Granisetron and Metoclopramide in Patients Undergoing Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy Under GA Vishal Gupta, Renu Wakhloo, Anjali Mehta, Satya Dev Gupta Abstract The aim of the present study was to compare the antiemetic effect of intravenous Granisetron, Ondansetron & Metoclopramide in a randomized blinded study for prophylaxis of post operative nausea and vomiting (PONV) in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy under general anaesthesia. 60 patients (ASA I & II) undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy under general anaesthesia were randomly allocated into three equal groups (n=20). Emetic episodes in first 24 hours were recorded and compared in different study groups. Results were analyzed. Minimal emetic episodes were observed in early post-operative period (1-12hrs) in patients who had received intravenous granisetron in comparison to ondansetron and metoclopramide. However, after 12 hours emesis free periods were statistically insignificant between group A and B while patients in group C had no antiemetic effect.

Clinical Review Esophageal, gastrointestinal, and colonic diseases resulting from disorders of the motor and sensory functions represent almost half the patients presenting to gastroenterologists. There have been significant advances in understanding the mechanisms of these disorders, through basic and translational research, and in targeting the receptors or mediators involved, through clinical trials involving biomarkers and patient responses. These advances have led to relief of patients’ symptoms and improved quality of life, although there are still significant unmet needs.
