OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of mosapride on treatment of functional dyspepsia.
METHODS
Randomized controlled clinical trial was conducted and patients suffered from functional dyspepsia were included. 5 mg mosapride was given three times daily for 4 weeks in the treatment group. 10 mg domperidone was given three times daily for 4 weeks as control. Changes on symptom score, gastric empty or new occurring events were included as outcomes.
RESULTS
231 patients suffered from functional dyspepsia were selected by inclusion and exclusion criteria from August 15 to Oct 22, 1999. Of these, 108 (46.8%) were males, versus 123 (53.2%) females and 118 (51.2%) in the treatment group and 113 (48.9%) as controls. 222 (96.1%) patients were followed up. Results showed that the total efficacy rates in early satiety and abdominal distension were 84.5% and 90.1% in mosapride after the 2 weeks of treatment. Mosapride seemed to be more effective in improving symptoms of belching and heartburn than that in controls (P < 0.05). In 4 weeks, the total efficacy in improving symptoms of abdominal distention and belching showed more effective in mosapride than that in controls (P < 0.05). Decrease of symptoms score was more in mosapride than that in controls (P < 0.05). Mosapride was less effective in controls in improving the gastric empty in terms of proportion (46.2% vs. 25.9%, P = 0.020) and range (46.2% vs. 24.0%, P = 0.003). Side effects would include diarrhea, constipation, headache, dizziness, insomnia, skin scare and the like. There was no significant difference between the two groups (9.6% in mosapride vs. 14.0% in controls).
CONCLUSIONS
Mosapride was safe and effective in improving the symptoms and gastric empty of functional dyspepsia.
