Abstract: Mosapride, as a gastroprokinetic agent, has a low incidence of adverse reactions, especially the reports of eosinophilia are extremely rare. A case of convalescent brainstem hemorrhage in our hospital was reported. After nasal feeding of mosapride citrate dispersible tablets, eosinophils increased. The patient was cured and discharged after treatment with antianaphylaxis and discontinuation of mosapride. As a common clinical drug, mosapride should be alert to the possibility of drug allergy reaction if eosinophilia occurs.

Key words: dyspepsia, eosinophilia, mosapride
