There are two issues for you to consider.

1) if you are on opiates for pain, you will be constipated and the Motilium would help. This drug is not available in US except from some compounding pharmacies and the FDA is trying to block compounding of non approved drugs.

2) real PN of the GI tract would be different. If you do not use drugs that constipate (slow food transit), then gastroparesis is a stronger possibility.

There is a new drug in US by injection that blocks GI side effects from opiates/narcotics.
