REGLAN  (METOCLOPRAMIDE HYDROCHLORIDE):  This medication is used to treat certain conditions of the stomach and intestines. Metoclopramide is used as a short-term treatment (4 to 12 weeks) for persistent heartburn when the usual medicines do not work well enough. It is used mostly for heartburn that occurs after a meal or during the daytime. Treating persistent heartburn can decrease the damage done by stomach acid to the swallowing tube (esophagus) and help healing. Metoclopramide is also used in diabetic patients who have poor emptying of their stomachs (gastroparesis). Treating gastroparesis can decrease symptoms of nausea, vomiting, and stomach/abdominal fullness. Metoclopramide works by blocking a natural substance (dopamine). It speeds up stomach emptying and movement of the upper intestines. This drug is not recommended for use in children due to an increased risk of serious side effects (such as muscle spasms/uncontrolled muscle movements). Ask the doctor or pharmacist for details.    (Sources: U.S. Centers for Medicare Services, FDA)

 5  Nausea None. Reglan is the only drug that would help my nausea I tried odansatrun and that doesn't help. I've taken Reglan for 6 years. And now I'm on omeprazole so I'm going to try to wean off of Reglan. Right now I'm down to two pills a day. I have to drink a lot of water. If I can burp it helps my nausea and when I drink water that helps me burp. F 67 2 days

 5  Chronic pancreatitis and gastritis Reglan can cause serious side effects especially if taken regulary/daily. It does cause me to have intention tremors but that goes away when I'm not taking the reglan. This drug is a life saver for me. It has actually helped me stop a gastritis attack while I was already vomiting. I avoided hospitalization twice because of this medication. Though this is a great and effective drug, I would strongly advise to take as little as needed and as infrequently as possible due to the known potential side effects. F 46 6 months

 5  TEMPORARY relief from drug overdose after being hospitalized for drug overdose and dehydration, this was given to me for nauseau and it was wonderful, worked great and allowed me to sleep. The negative reviews on reglan, are for people who take it regularly, which is not recommended. But for occasional relief from temporary sickness, this was a great pain reliever, sleep inducer.

 5  GERD Reduced anxiety, improved thinking and functioning, an overall feeling of calmness, exhaustion This medication is without doubt one of the best things that has ever happened to me.

 5  nausea/lack of digestion-pregnancy No negative side effects thus far. My doctor prescribed this medication to help me digest my food more affectively. I do not take it every 3 hours or 3 times a day. I normally only take one pill in the evening if I feel like I'm not digesting my food adequately. This medication has helped me a great deal. I also feel less nauseous after just a few minutes. It helps me to be less consipated as well. I can't believe some of the terrible side effects I have read on this site. I hope none of these things happen to me or my baby. I just wanted to give my opinion so that maybe it will help someone. F 24 3 weeks

 5  gastroparesis I had headaches and such at first - but i have been taking this medication for 3 years - 1 5mg tab 3x per day. It has helped me tremendously. I tried to quit it because all this controversy scared me, and believe me - it's painful. Then i thought to myself maybe everyone else is having side effects but at this point i am not, and why would i stop something that works really well. Im sorry that everyone else has had bad experiences but i have not. F 54 3 years
