What Are Prokinetic Drugs? Prokinetic drugs support healthy motility throughout your stomach and intestines. Motility refers to the way food moves through your intestinal tract. Slow motility most often shows up as constipation, and fast motility as diarrhea. Good motility is important for gut health, as it keeps the intestinal system in balance.
No.: Bentyl (dicyclomine) decreases intestinal motility and is usually used to treat irritable -bowel syndrome or other motility disorders.

Gastrointestinal motility is the rhythmic action of the intestines that moves food through the system. Anticholinergic drugs are common ingredients in antidiarrheal medications because they significantly decrease intestinal motility and secretions. They relax spasms of smooth muscles in the intestine and decrease the urgency associated with
Opioid drugs affect the mu receptors in the gastrointestinal tract. The mu receptors control the contraction of the muscles in the GI tract, known as intestinal motility. When these receptors are activated by an opioid drug, intestinal motility significantly decreases. This causes the muscles to slow down and stop contracting.
We help treat symptoms commonly associated with intestinal motility disorders such as bloating, nausea, abdominal discomfort, weight loss, and diarrhea. Types of Intestinal Motility Disorders. There are several types of motility disorders that can occur in the intestines: Intestinal pseudo-obstruction; Colonic inertia; Scleroderma; Irritable
The primary drug choices for GI motility disorders include agents that stimulate intestinal Improving
