How Does it Work

Metoclopramide 2 mg/0.1 ml Topical Cream (Vet) is a semisolid preparation designed for convenient and controlled application on the skin. It is primarily used in the treatment of various gastrointestinal conditions in animals, including Gastric Stasis, Gastric Hypomotility, Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease, Dysphagia, and Vomiting.
