treatment for gastroparesis

Treatment for gastroparesis involves a combination of dietary modifications, medications, and in severe cases, surgical interventions. The goal is to improve symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and bloating by promoting stomach emptying and managing underlying conditions such as diabetes or autoimmune disorders. Dietary changes may include eating smaller, more frequent meals and avoiding high-fat or high-fiber foods. Medications like prokinetic agents can help stimulate stomach contractions, while surgical options like gastric stimulation or pyloroplasty may be considered in refractory cases. Treatment plans are tailored to individual patient needs and may require ongoing adjustments for optimal symptom control.
