Yes, Metoclopramide can be used in patients with renal impairment, but dosages should be reduced. Generally, the dose is halved in patients with severe renal dysfunction.
Metoclopramide is safe for patients with renal impairment if dosed properly. Reduce the dosage by 50% in individuals with marked renal insufficiency.
