Administration

Itopride hydrochloride is administered orally as film-coated tablets, typically at a dosage of 50 mg three times daily for adults. Tablets should be swallowed whole with a sufficient amount of liquid approximately 15 to 30 minutes before meals to optimize gastric motility during digestion. Treatment duration generally should not exceed eight weeks. Use is not recommended in pediatric populations under 16 years of age due to insufficient safety data. Caution and close monitoring are required for elderly patients and those with hepatic or renal impairment, necessitating dose reductions or discontinuation if adverse reactions occur. It is contraindicated in cases of gastrointestinal hemorrhage, mechanical obstruction, or perforation.
