- Abstract
The effects of different prokinetic agents, the motilide erythromycin and the substituted benzamides metoclopramide and cisapride, were investigated in a rat model of postoperative ileus. These effects were compared with that of granisetron, a 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT(3)) receptor antagonist, and a novel enterokinetic agent, prucalopride, a 5-HT(4) receptor agonist.
