Bethanechol is a medication that can be used to treat gastroparesis, a condition where the stomach takes too long to empty its contents. Bethanechol works by stimulating the muscles in the gastrointestinal tract, which helps move food through the digestive system. However, like all medications, bethanechol can cause side effects. 1. Nausea 2. Vomiting 3. Diarrhea 4. Abdominal cramps 5. Headache
