Pyruvate + Metoclopramide Hydrochloride
Metoclopramide Hydrochloride brand name: Gimoti.
We found no known interaction between Pyruvate and Metoclopramide Hydrochloride in our sources. Absence of a documented interaction is not the same as proven safety, and does not guarantee one does not exist. Do not start, stop, or change a medication or supplement based on this page; confirm with your pharmacist or doctor first. Additionally, although there is no interaction, the two are separately associated with some of the same side effects, which would make a new symptom harder to attribute to one or the other.
Pyruvate and Metoclopramide Hydrochloride
We checked these two against our interaction database. Here is what we found.
No Known Interaction Found
We did not find a documented interaction between Metoclopramide Hydrochloride and Pyruvate in our sources. This does not guarantee that the combination is completely free of risk — there is often limited research on supplements and herbal products, especially around drug interactions.
Worth understanding: our licensed dataset holds no drug-interaction record for Pyruvate at all — not against Metoclopramide Hydrochloride, and not against any other medication we track. This verdict therefore rests on the absence of any recorded data, not on research that looked at this combination and found nothing. We cannot rule an interaction out.
If you decide to take both, the practical routine is simple: add one new thing at a time and note the date you started it. If the combination is going to disagree with you, it usually shows in the first days to a couple of weeks — and a start date turns “I’ve been feeling off” into something a pharmacist can actually work with. Do not stop a prescribed medicine on your own.
Always talk with your pharmacist or doctor before making changes to your medications or supplements, particularly if you take several medications or have an ongoing health condition.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Metoclopramide Hydrochloride page
“Metoclopramide (Gimoti, also sold as Reglan) calms nausea and speeds a slow stomach by acting on the brain, and that is exactly where most of these 135 supplements and herbs collide with it. This is a list to treat with genuine care.”

About Pyruvate
What is Pyruvate?
- Weight loss and fat loss
- Exercise performance and endurance
- Energy boosting
- Body composition support
Pyruvate is a natural compound your body makes during the breakdown of sugar for energy, and it is sold as a supplement mainly for weight loss and athletic performance. The evidence for these uses is weak and mixed, and high doses commonly cause stomach upset. Talk to your pharmacist or doctor before trying it, especially if you have health conditions or take other medicines.
Capsules, tablets, powder; often as calcium pyruvate or sodium pyruvate
An interaction check asks whether these two react with each other — it does not ask whether Pyruvate is a good idea for someone in your situation. Here is what our Pyruvate record says about it on its own.
Pyruvate: dosing
There is no well-established standard dose for pyruvate. Studies have used a wide range of amounts, and many used large doses that caused stomach upset.Because a reliable effective and safe dose has not been settled, follow the directions on the product label and do not exceed them.
From our Pyruvate monograph — the full record covers uses, side effects and every documented interaction.
About Metoclopramide Nasal Spray
What Is Metoclopramide Nasal Spray Used For?
Brand name: Gimoti
Gimoti (metoclopramide nasal spray) is approved for adults with acute and recurrent diabetic gastroparesis — a condition where diabetes damages the nerves controlling stomach emptying, causing nausea, vomiting, and bloating. It works to relieve those symptoms by helping the stomach empty more normally.
Gimoti is not recommended for children, or for adults with moderate to severe kidney or liver disease. It is also not recommended for adults taking strong CYP2D6 inhibitor medications (certain antidepressants and other drugs that slow how the body breaks down metoclopramide).
Most-Reported Side Effects for Metoclopramide Hydrochloride
From FAERS, the FDA’s public side-effect reporting system (76,710 reports, all brands). Reports are voluntary and are not proof the drug caused the effect.
