Metoclopramide vs antipsychotics?

[DreamEnd]

Is there any interaction between anti psychotics(olanzapine) and meto. I know stan mentioned that you can take olanzapine as an AE but I am wondering if it's better to take both just to be sure not to vomit.

Olanzapine and Metoclopramide both increase antidopamine effects (such as severe muscle stiffness or spasms, difficulty speaking or swallowing, restlessness, tremor, or more serious reactions such as uncontrollable muscle or facial movements).

Can I take them both or are they both good as anti emetics?

That is your call. Metoclopramide's primary function is to serve as an antiemetic.

Olanzapine is an Antipsychotic. It's not even prescribed off-label as an antiemetic.

I dont see the need for Olanzapine.

i once pushed several dozens risperidone pills down my throat and gulped on alchohol. i was a wimp and pussy so i didn't know what to do next as i was totally impulsive and called mother to call an ambulance, and they come one hour after but i didn't feel any force to throw up at all. i wandered in panick for one hour like retard before ambulance guys came and they forced me to drink several liters of water and told me to put two fingers deep in the throat so i puked my stomach contents. later they drove me in toxicological center and there i'd developed symptoms of antypsychotics poisoning, i lost control of my neck muscles completely as they slowly creeped backwards i pushed them with my hands in the opposite direction, eventually fixing the head position with my hands rendered useless and my head turned inside out and i felt hellish muscle cramps, i asked for help a nurse who's observed me and they transferred me in ICU and administered benzodiazepines I.V through dropper. can't remember exactly what happened next probably i fell asleep so i got discharged from the clinic several days after. antypsychotics are usable as antimetics although excessive dosage can cause movement disorders with their intensity depending on the dose taken, it's better to combine antimetics of different groups, like meto and ondansetron as it seems safer
