Gimoti® (metoclopramide) nasal spray

Still suffering from symptoms or flares associated with your diabetic gastroparesis?

GIMOTI may help if you have diabetic gastroparesis and are suffering with the following symptoms:

  • Nausea
  • Vomiting
  • Abdominal pain
  • Early satiety (feeling full after eating a small amount)

Maybe it’s time to try a different route for your treatment. GIMOTI is delivered as a nasal spay vs. an oral medication.

  • GIMOTI is absorbed directly into the bloodstream. Unlike pills or oral medicines, GIMOTI does not rely on the stomach emptying to work
  • Unlike pills, GIMOTI can work even when you are nauseated or vomiting

FAQs

HOW DO I GET STARTED?

1. Register – Set up an account by providing your Name, Email, and Password.
2. Complete Medical Questionnaire – Answer medical questions that the provider will review during your consultation.
3. Checkout – Provide billing and payment information for your virtual consultation.
4. Conduct Visit With a Provider – Conduct an Audio or Video Consultation to find out if this medication is right for you. The consultation type depends on your state regulations.

HOW DOES THE ONLINE CONSULTATION PROCESS WORK?

After registering, you will be asked to complete an online medical assessment to provide more information about your medical history, medical conditions, and any medications you are currently taking.

Next, one of our providers will conduct an audio or video consultation. He or she will review the medical information you provide to determine whether a prescription is appropriate for you. If approved, your prescription will be sent to vitaCare home delivery pharmacy for review. If necessary, the pharmacy may contact you.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN AUDIO AND VIDEO CONSULTATIONS?

All states require some interaction between a provider and the patient in order to prescribe medication. However, regulations governing the type of interaction or consultation differ from state to state. Depending on your state, you will be required to have an audio or video visit with a provider. 

AUDIO CONSULTATIONS

If your state requires an audio consultation, you will be directed to schedule an audio visit by choosing from a list of providers who are licensed in your state.

You will receive a confirmation email with a link to join the audio visit. At the scheduled time, click on the link directly in the confirmation email or log in to your account and click “Begin Scheduled Visit”. Once you have logged in, you will be in the waiting room until the provider initiates the visit. The provider will review the medical information you provided, verify important medical information, and address any specific questions you may have.

If you need to reschedule, you can do so by going to Order History and clicking “Reschedule” to select a different date and time. If you have any questions or issues, please contact us.

VIDEO CONSULTATIONS
