4.1 Therapeutic Uses

Anti-Ulcer Agents; Gastrointestinal Agents; Serotonin Agonists

National Library of Medicine's Medical Subject Headings online file (MeSH, 1999)


Cisapride is indicated for the symptomatic treatment of nocturnal (and daytime /Not included in US product labeling/) heartburn, and of esophagitis due to reflux and delayed gastric emptying. Treatment may continue for up to 8 weeks; however, tolerance to cisapride may develop at some point in therapy. /Included in US product labeling/

Cisapride is indicated in the treatment of gastroparesis, including idiopathic, diabetic, and intestinal pseudo-obstruction. Treatment may continue for up to 8 weeks; however, tolerance to cisapride may develop at some point in therapy. /NOT included in US product labeling/

4.2 Drug Warning

Cisapride generally is well tolerated. Adverse effects on the GI tract and nervous system are most common and those most frequently requiring discontinuance of the drug(usually because of intolerable diarrhea and/or abdominal pain). The most common adverse GI effects (e.g., diarrhea) are extensions of the drug's pharmacologic activity. Because of differences in the pharmacologic profiles of the drugs, adverse nervous system effects are less common with cisapride than with metoclopramide whereas diarrhea is more common with cisapride.

McEvoy G.K. (ed.). American Hospital Formulary Service-Drug Information 96. Bethesda, MD: American Society of Health-System Pharmacists, Inc. 1996 (Plus Supplements)., p. 2146


In adults receiving cisapride for motility disorder in US placebo-controlled clinical trials, including those with gastroesophageal reflux disease, the most frequent adverse effects of cisapride were headache, diarrhea, abdominal pain, nausea, constipation, and rhinitis. The frequency of diarrhea, abdominal pain, constipation, flatulence, and rhinitis appears to be dose dependent, occurring more frequently in patients receiving oral cisapride 20 mg 4 times daily than in those receiving 10 mg 4 times daily. Many adverse effects reported with cisapride occurred at a frequency similar to that associated with placebo, and a causal relationship to the drug often could not be established.

Dehydration was reported in more than 1% of patients receiving cisapride in controlled clinical trials. Limited evidence indicates that cisapride does not adversely affect glycemic control in insulin-dependent (type I) diabetic patients with delayed gastric emptying.

Viral infection occurred in about 4% of patients receiving cisapride in controlled clinical trails and required discontinuance of the drug in 0.2% of patients. Fever was reported in about 2% of patients receiving cisapride in controlled clinical trials and required discontinuance in 0.1%.

5 Pharmacology and Biochemistry
5.1 MeSH Pharmacological Classification

Serotonin Receptor Agonists

Endogenous compounds and drugs that bind to and activate SEROTONIN RECEPTORS. Many serotonin receptor agonists are used as ANTIDEPRESSANTS; ANXIOLYTICS; and in the treatment of MIGRAINE DISORDERS. (See all compounds classified as Serotonin Receptor Agonists.)


Anti-Ulcer Agents

Various agents with different action mechanisms used to treat or ameliorate PEPTIC ULCER or irritation of the gastrointestinal tract. This has included ANTIBIOTICS to treat HELICOBACTER INFECTIONS; HISTAMINE H2 ANTAGONISTS to reduce GASTRIC ACID secretion; and ANTACIDS for symptomatic relief. (See all compounds classified as Anti-Ulcer Agents.)


Gastrointestinal Agents

Drugs used for their effects on the gastrointestinal system, as to control gastric acidity, regulate gastrointestinal motility and water flow, and improve digestion. (See all compounds classified as Gastrointestinal Agents.)


5.2 ATC Code

A - Alimentary tract and metabolism

A03 - Drugs for functional gastrointestinal disorders

A03F - Propulsives

A03FA - Propulsives

A03FA02 - Cisapride


5.3 Absorption, Distribution and Excretion

The placental transfer of cisapride, a new prokinetic agent, was studied in a sheep model. The pharmacokinetics of cisapride were studied in the lamb, the pregnant ewe, and the fetus by obtaining blood samples from chronically implanted arterial catheters. Comparable pharmacokinetic parameters were found in the lamb and the adult sheep: half-life, 1.39-1.83 hr; total plasma clearance, 1998-2160 ml/kg/hr; AUC, 92.6-100.1 ng.hr/ml. Cisapride plasma concentrations after continuous infusion were predicted correctly based on the parameters obtained after IV bolus. There was a materno-fetal transfer of cisapride following a single IV bolus administered to the mother. Cisapride crossed the placenta within 5 min and equilibrated with maternal plasma within 20 to 30 min after dosing. The average fetal-to-maternal plasma concentration ratio was 0.71. The amniotic fluid also contained measurable amounts of cisapride. The protein binding of cisapride in maternal and fetal plasma is 89.0% and 88.4%, respectively; the free fraction is 4 times larger than in humans. Cisapride crosses the ovine placental barrier. The sheep placenta is less permeable than the human placenta, but the higher free fraction of cisapride facilitates placental transfer.

5.5 Mechanism of Action

Cisapride exerts its effect by increasing the release of acetylcholine from the postganglionic nerve endings of the myenteric plexus. This release of acetylcholine increases esophageal activity and increases esophageal sphincter tone, thereby improving esophageal clearance and decreasing reflux of gastric and duodenal emptying as a result of increased gastric and duodenal contractility and antroduodenal coordination. Duodenogastric reflux is also decreased. Cisapride improves transit in both small and large bowel.
