Safety of Reglan (Metoclopramide) after Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG)

There are no research papers to assist in answering this question, as none of the provided studies mention the use of Reglan (Metoclopramide) after CABG.

  • The studies provided focus on various aspects of post-CABG care, including: + Antidepressant therapy in patients undergoing CABG 1 + Anticoagulation and antiplatelet therapy post CABG 2 + Comparison of midterm outcomes associated with aspirin and ticagrelor vs aspirin monotherapy after CABG for acute coronary syndrome 3 + Optimal medical therapy after CABG, including lipid-lowering, diabetes management, antithrombotic therapy, and anti-inflammatory therapy 4 + Renin-angiotensin system inhibition and outcome after CABG 5
  • These studies do not provide information on the safety of Reglan (Metoclopramide) after CABG, and therefore, cannot be used to answer the question.
