Abstract

We assessed the Ganaton (itopride hydrochloride) efficacy in the treatment of 509 patients with functional dyspepsia (FD). We estimated the symptoms severity according to a points system. It noted the frequent combination of PD with heartburn, nausea, bloating, and bowel function disorders. Ganaton administration at a dose of 150 mg daily for 4 weeks contributed to the complete disappearance of complaints in 46.6% of patients and significant decrease in its severity in 47.8% of patients. The drug administration was well tolerated; serious side effects were not observed.
