Abstract

A double blind controlled trial was performed to assess the symptomatic benefit of oral metoclopramide in patients with gastro-oesophageal reflux. In the 31 patients studied, metoclopramide was not clearly superior to the placebo but definite conclusions could not be drawn because of the small numbers.
