Cisapride treatment for gastro-oesophageal reflux in children

Abstract: Background Gastro-oesophageal reflux (GOR) is an extremely common and usually self-limiting condition in infants. When treatment is required, Cisapride, a pro-kinetic agent, has been commonly prescribed for the symptomatic management of GOR. There have been recent reports of possibly serious adverse events, e.g. an increased QTc interval, cardiac arrhythmias, and death, associated with the use of Cisapride. 1 Cisapride treatment for gastro-oesophageal reflux in children (Review)
