I was told by Jack Newman, MD in a panel he did in September 1995, that they
had been using it in Canada for the last ten years.  He felt there were
significantly fewer side effects of this than Reglan.  I had a mom who
probably would have benefitted from its use and could not find a physician
or pharmacist who had heard of it.  Good luck.
