Side effects of Cloridrato de Metoclopramida Teuto in details

Neurological: Adverse reactions to Cloridrato de Metoclopramida Teuto that are most frequently seen are restlessness, drowsiness, fatigue and lassitude, which occur in approximately 10% of patients. Insomnia, headache, dizziness have been reported less frequently. Acute depression has been reported rarely (<1 in 1000 cases). Symptoms of Cloridrato de Metoclopramida Teuto induced depression have ranged from mild to severe and have included suicidal ideation and suicide. Anxiety or agitation may occur, especially after rapid injection. Delirium, severe dysphoria, obsessive rumination and mania have been reported occasionally.

Parkinsonian symptoms including tremor, rigidity, bradykinesia and akinesia, occur rarely in patients receiving Cloridrato de Metoclopramida Teuto but may be associated with usual or excessive doses or with decreased renal function.

Various extrapyramidal reactions to Cloridrato de Metoclopramida Teuto, usually of the dystonic type, have been reported. Acute dystonic reactions occur in approximately 0.2% of patients treated with Cloridrato de Metoclopramida Teuto 30-40 mg/day. In cancer chemotherapy, patients receiving 1-2 mg/kg/dose, the incidence is 2% in patients over the ages of 30-35, and 25% or higher in children and young adults who have not had prophylactic administration of diphenhydramine. Reactions include spasm of the facial muscles, trismus, rhythmic protrusion of the tongue, a bulbar type of speech, spasm of the extraocular muscles including oculogyric crisis, unnatural positioning of the head and shoulders and opisthotonos. There may be a generalised increase in muscle tone. The majority of reactions occur within 36 hrs of starting treatment and the effects usually disappear within 24 hrs of withdrawal of the drug. However, close observation is required, and in cases of more severe reactions, an antiparkinson drug eg, benztropine or an anticholinergic antihistamine eg, diphenhydramine should be given.

A fatal acute dystonic reaction has been reported in a patient who received hexamethylmelamine, cisplatin and Cloridrato de Metoclopramida Teuto high dose. Dystonic reactions may present rarely as upper airway obstruction with stridor and dyspnoea, possibly secondary to laryngospasm or supraglottic dystonia. A fatal cardiorespiratory arrest occurred in at least 1 patient with an acute dystonic reaction.

Tardive dyskinesia, which may be persistent, has been reported particularly in elderly patients (particularly women) following long-term therapy with Cloridrato de Metoclopramida Teuto. Tardive dyskinesia is most frequently characterised by involuntary movements of the tongue, face, mouth or jaw, and sometimes by involuntary movements of the trunk and/or extremities. The risk of developing tardive dyskinesia and the likelihood that it will become irreversible are believed to increase with increasing duration of therapy and total cumulative dose. Although tardive dyskinesia can occur after relatively brief therapy with the drug at low doses, it appears to be more readily reversible under such circumstances.

Neuroleptic Malignant Syndrome (NMS): It has been reported very rarely (<2 in 10,000). NMS is potentially fatal and comprises hyperpyrexia, altered consciousness, muscle rigidity, autonomic instability and elevated levels of CPK, and must be treated urgently (recognised treatments include dantrolene and bromocriptine).

Cloridrato de Metoclopramida Teuto should be stopped immediately if NMS occurs.

Gastrointestinal: Nausea or bowel disturbances have been reported.

Cardiovascular: A single case of supraventricular tachycardia following IM administration has been reported. Cardiac conduction abnormalities (eg, bradycardia and heart block) have occurred very rarely (<1 in 10,000) in association with IV Cloridrato de Metoclopramida Teuto. Atrial fibrillation, oedema, ventricular fibrillation, ventricular tachycardia, palpitations and tachycardia have also been associated with the use of Cloridrato de Metoclopramida Teuto. In 1 study in hypertensive patients, IV administered Cloridrato de Metoclopramida Teuto was shown to release catecholamines; hence, caution should be exercised when Cloridrato de Metoclopramida Teuto is used in patients with hypertension.

Endocrine: Raised serum prolactin levels have been observed during Cloridrato de Metoclopramida Teuto therapy; this effect is similar to that noted with many other compounds. Galactorrhoea and breast enlargement have also been observed during Cloridrato de Metoclopramida Teuto therapy.

Hypersensitivity: There have been isolated reports of hypersensitivity reactions (eg, urticaria, maculopapular rash) in patients receiving the drug.

Respiratory: Respiratory failure, secondary to dystonic reaction, acute asthmatic symptoms of wheezing and dyspnoea may occur.

Genitourinary: Urinary incontinence, sexual dysfunction, priapism and muscle spasm may also occur.

Other Effects: There have been isolated reports of blood disorders. Methaemoglobinaemia, particularly following overdose in neonates, has also occurred in patients receiving the drug. Agranulocytosis and hyperthermia have also been observed.
