Pharmacological action
CERUCAL – an antiemetic, is a specific blocker of dopamine (D2) and serotonin receptors. The mechanism of action is based on both central, and on the peripheral effects of metoclopramide. The antiemetic effect is associated with blockade of the dopamine receptors of the brain, which causes an increase in the threshold of irritation of the vomiting center. It has an antiemetic effect, eliminates nausea and hiccups. Reduces the motor activity of the esophagus, increases the tone of the lower esophageal sphincter, accelerates the emptying of the stomach, and also accelerates the movement of food through the small intestine without causing diarrhea. It normalizes the secretion of bile, reduces the spasm of the sphincter of Oddi, does not change its status, eliminates dyskinesia of the gallbladder. Stimulates the secretion of prolactin.
The pharmacokinetics of
Vd is 2.2 – 3.4 L / kg.
Metabolized in the liver. The half-life is from 3 to 5 hours, with chronic renal failure – 14 hours. It is excreted by the kidneys during the first 24 hours unchanged and in the form of metabolites (about 80% and a single dose). It easily penetrates the blood-brain barrier and is excreted in breast milk.

Extrapyramidal disorders are possible: spasm of the facial muscles, trismus, rhythmic protrusion of the tongue, bulbar type of speech, spasm of extraocular muscles (including oculogyric crisis), spastic torticollis, opistotonus, muscle hypertonicity. Parkinsonism (tremor, muscle twitching, limited mobility, the risk of developing in children and adolescents increases with a dose exceeding 0.5 mg / kg / day) and late dyskinesias (in elderly patients with chronic renal failure). In isolated cases, the development of a severe antipsychotic syndrome is possible.
With prolonged treatment with cerucal in elderly patients, the development of symptoms of parkinsonism (tremor, muscle twitching, limited mobility) and late dyskinesia are possible.

Reduces the effectiveness of therapy with H2-histamine blockers.
Increased risk of hepatotoxicity when combined with hepatotoxic agents.
Reduces the effectiveness of pergolide, levodopa.
Increases the bioavailability of cyclosporine, which may require monitoring its concentration.
Increases bromocriptine concentration.
With the simultaneous appointment of cerucal with thiamine (Vitamin B1), the latter quickly disintegrates.
Overdose
Symptoms: drowsiness, confusion, irritability, anxiety, seizures, extrapyramidal motor disorders, cardiovascular disorders with bradycardia and arterial hypo or hypertension. In mild forms of poisoning, the symptoms disappear 24 hours after withdrawal. Depending on the severity of the symptoms, it is recommended to monitor the vital functions of the patient. Fatal cases of overdose poisoning have not yet been identified.
