Metoclopramide is not typically used to treat irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) as it primarily targets gastrointestinal motility, not the typical symptoms of IBS.
Metoclopramide targets symptoms like nausea and delayed gastric emptying, which can be involved in IBS but isn’t a primary treatment for the syndrome itself.
