Mosapride Citrate Tablets

Function and Efficacy

This product is a selective 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT4) receptor agonist. It promotes the release of acetylcholine by stimulating the 5-HT4 receptors of the gastrointestinal cholinergic interneurons and myenteric plexus, thereby enhancing the motility of the upper gastrointestinal tract (stomach and small intestine). Studies have shown that this product has the effect of promoting gastric and duodenal motility and accelerating gastric emptying. Rat studies have shown that repeated administration of this product for one week weakens its effect on promoting gastric emptying. In long-term (104 weeks in rats and 92 weeks in mice) administration studies in rodents, the incidence of liver cell adenomas and thyroid cell adenomas increased at doses of 30~100 mg/kg/day (equivalent to 100~300 times the clinically recommended dose).
