PRODUCT INTRODUCTION
description
Metoclopramide is a member of the class of benzamides resulting from the formal condensation of 4-amino-5-chloro-2-methoxybenzoic acid with the primary amino group of N,N-diethylethane-1,2-diamine. It has a role as an antiemetic, a dopaminergic antagonist, a gastrointestinal drug, a xenobiotic and an environmental contaminant. It is a tertiary amino compound, a substituted aniline, a member of benzamides and a member of monochlorobenzenes. It is a conjugate base of a metoclopramide(1+).
