Metoclopramide + Paracetamol (Acetaminophen)

Uses

Metoclopramide and Paracetamol are used in the treatment of migraines.

How it Works

How Metoclopramide and Paracetamol Work Metoclopramide and Paracetamol is a combination of two medications: Metoclopramide and Paracetamol. Metoclopramide is a prokinetic agent that acts on the region of the brain responsible for controlling vomiting. It also enhances the movement of the stomach and intestines, facilitating the passage of food through the digestive tract. This helps prevent nausea and vomiting associated with migraines. Paracetamol serves as an analgesic (pain reliever) and an antipyretic (fever reducer), blocking the release of specific chemical messengers that trigger pain and fever related to migraines.

Side Effects

Common side effects of Metoclopramide and Paracetamol include restlessness, sleepiness, and fatigue.
