Cisapride for the treatment of nausea produced by selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors
R Bergeron and P Blier
Department of Psychiatry, McGill University, Montreal, Que., Canada.
A low dose of cisapride (5 mg b.i.d.) produced rapid relief from nausea
elicited by the initiation of treatment with a selective serotonin reuptake
inhibitor in eight patients. This effect of cisapride is presumably related
to its serotonin3 antagonistic property.
