Mosapride is a selective 5-HT4 receptor agonist used as a gastroprokinetic agent to treat symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and functional dyspepsia. It enhances gastrointestinal motility by stimulating the release of acetylcholine in the enteric nervous system. Mosapride is approved for use in several countries for the management of gastrointestinal disorders related to delayed gastric emptying.
