Overview

A combination of **metoclopramide** and **mosapride**, both of which are gastrointestinal prokinetic agents used to enhance gastrointestinal motility. Metoclopramide is primarily a dopamine receptor antagonist, while mosapride is a selective 5-HT4 receptor agonist. This combination would theoretically be used to enhance gastric emptying and treat conditions with impaired gastrointestinal motility, such as gastroparesis, functional dyspepsia, or ileus. Both drugs improve gastrointestinal transit, but via different mechanisms: metoclopramide blocks dopamine D2 receptors enhancing acetylcholine release in the GI tract, while mosapride stimulates serotonin 5-HT4 receptors, further promoting acetylcholine release and motility[1][3][4].
