Talk:Prokinetic

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I don't know which source to cite as "reference" (searching google for "prokinetics" returns around 50.000 results). This term doesn't seem to be so popular in the US, or else the article would be older and perhaps more complete.. For now, I've found this class of drugs with different names ("motility stimulants", for example) in books, but still haven't found a source for the exact term "prokinetic". Searching the internet proves that this term is actually used in medical communities (in research papers, for example), and after all, it's just a composite word (pro-kinetic as in pro-movement, or "enhancing movement" [of the Gastrointestinal tract]). But I don't have time right now to keep on searching for a reference. I'll come back later and try to finish this. user:guruclef

Ok, I decided to put goodman and gilman as reference since it explicitly (sp?) uses the term "prokinetics". user:guruclef
