By Sharon Gillson. Updated November 25, 2014. Reglan (Metoclopramide) is a medicine that increases the movements or contractions of the stomach and intestines. When given by injection, it is used to help diagnose certain problems of the stomach and/or intestines.
Reglan is approved for the short-term treatment (12 weeks or less) of GERD. It works by helping the esophageal sphincter (that controls the opening between the stomach and the esophagus) to close more tightly. Studies have shown that Reglan can help relieve symptoms and can also heal erosions and ulcers caused by GERD.
