Sample Use Guides

The usual adult dosage is 150mg of itopride hydrochloride (3 tablets) per oral administration daily in three divided doses before meals. The dose may be reduced according to the patient’s age and symptoms.
Route of Administration: Oral
In Vitro Use Guide
To study the interaction between itopride and D2 receptors, rat striatum homogenate was used. The striatal homogenate was incubated with [3H]spiperone (at a final concentration of 0.3 nM), 10nM ketanserin and 10M pargyline, and the displacing ligand at a final concentration from 1 pM to 100 uM. Radioactivity was measured using filtration through Whatman GF/B filters and liquid scintillation counting.
