Study Notes
GI Medications: Stimulating GI Motility
Cholinomimetic Agents
- Bethanechol (Urecholine) stimulates gastrointestinal (GI) motility
- Neostigmine (Prostigmin) stimulates GI motility
Dopamine D2 Receptor Antagonists
- Metoclopramide (Reglan) stimulates GI motility by blocking dopamine receptors
- Domperidone stimulates GI motility by blocking dopamine receptors
Macrolide Agents
- Erythromycin stimulates GI motility
- Azithromycin stimulates GI motility
Test your knowledge on drugs that stimulate gastrointestinal motility with this quiz. Explore cholinomimetic agents like bethanechol and neostigmine, dopamine D2 receptor antagonists such as metoclopramide and domperidone, and macrolide agents like erythromycin. Are you ready to ace this quiz?
