Large doses of metoclopramide as an antiemetics were administered to 9 patients recieving cisplatin (CDDP) (50mg/m2) for head and neck cancers. Metoclopramide, 2mg/kg was administered four times intravenously on the first day of CDDP therapy and once a day on days 2-7. Neither emesis nor nausea occurred in 8 of the 9 patients (89%). Side effbcts were minimal: mild sleepiness(66.7%)and diarrhea(22.2%). It is concluded that the antiemetic effect of intravenous metoclopramide in large amounts can prevent cisplatin-induced emesis.
