Itopride
Itopride (INN, trade name Ganaton) is a prokinetic benzamide derivative unlike metoclopramide or domperidone. These drugs inhibit dopamine and have a gastrokinetic effect. Itopride is indicated for the treatment of functional dyspepsia and other gastrointestinal conditions.
Itopride is not currently approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use in the United States, nor is it yet approved in the United Kingdom. This may explain the apparent lack of patient information available in English compared to other similar classes of medication.
Clinical use
Typically, itopride is indicated in the treatment of GI symptoms caused by reduced GI motility:
Itopride is typically taken three times a day. The dose is usually taken on an empty stomach about an hour before meals. However, the dosage and details of administration may vary depending on the patient's age, symptoms, and other factors.

Say It Louder! (you Might Be The Nicest Thing I Have Ever Seen)
by: AutopirateWe must be better off, we must be better off alone,
Than stuck here in this clever mess of a life.
But the ties we share are too strong to sever,
And it looks like we'll be together.
The story, the story has been around forever.
You just don't get it, you just don't get it at all,
It's less about you and more about the way that we say goodbye before we even say hello.
We even start to believe that it's the way that it should be,
Just ignore those thoughts of reason in the back of our heads.
(Forget them, forget them, forget them all)
You left me with nothing, you left me with nothing but the fast,
Beating of my heart.
Racing in the back, as your glance caught mine in the car,
That collided with mine.
Let's see how fast we can go.
You just don't get it, you just don't get it at all,
It's less about you and more about the way that we say goodbye before we even say hello.
We even start to believe that it's the way that it should be,
Just ignore those thoughts of reason in the back of our heads.
