Yes: First line treatment for gastroparesis is dietary. Recommendations include small frequent meals consisting of a low fat, low residue diet. Second line treatment is usually medication and would require a visit to your doctor's office. Common medications used for gastroparesis include metoclopramide, Erythromycin and domperidone.
