Description
Acotiamide monohydrochloride trihydrate is an orally active and first-in-class gastroprokinetic agent for the treatment of functional dyspepsia. Acotiamide monohydrochloride trihydrate enhances acetylcholine released by enteric neurons through muscarinic receptor antagonism and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibition, thereby enhancing gastric emptying and gastric accommodation.
