Professional:GENERALLY AVOID: Anticholinergic agents and other agents with significant anticholinergic activity (e.g., clozapine, class IA antiarrhythmics especially disopyramide) may antagonize the pharmacologic effects of gastrointestinal prokinetic agents. Gastrokinetic drugs such as domperidone and metoclopramide increase gastrointestinal motility by blocking peripheral dopamine receptors. Anticholinergic agents could negate this action.
MANAGEMENT: Concomitant use of gastrointestinal prokinetic agents with anticholinergic agents should be avoided, if possible.
