title: [Extrapyramidal signs as side-effect with metoclopramid-medication (author's transl)].
abstract: 4 cases of extrapyramidal disturbances, observed in children with Metoclopramid-medication, are reported. These side-effects may occur already at normal therapeutic dosage, especially in the young patient. The side-effects are reversible, and respond easily to i.v. injection or peroral application of anti-parkinsonian drugs, less severe cases may subside by withdrawal of the drug. The therapeutic use in the pediatric field must be strictly indicated because of the special disposition of children to the side-effects described above.
