TSA-USA (Tourette's Syndrome Association-USA) actually gave a grant for the study of this drug as a treatment of Tourette's Syndrome

This work was supported by a grant from the Tourette Syndrome Association, Inc.

Disclosure: Dr. Castellanos receives research support from McNeil Consumer & Specialty Pharmaceuticals. The other authors have no financial relationships to disclose.
You can still find Metoclopramide listed on web pages as a potential treatment. Saw one this morning in fact from Seattle area.
