| 4 | migraine | F | 41 | 2.5mg 1X day | 7/24/2010 Patient History | 1 | migraine | I felt like I wanted to jump ot of my skin. I was very drowsy and so uncomfortable, but I couldnt do anything about it. I had twitches every other second because I could'nt control or stand what I was feeling. | F | 25 | | 9/11/2008 | 4 | Sedation | I was very drowsy after using it and slept most of the day. | I discussed my experience with my doctor thinking that perhaps she would adjust the dose the following time, but she apologized and stopped using it on me. | M | 32 | 1 times | 10/2/2007 | 1 | nausea | Psychosis. Extreme unbearable panic.Intensity would remain constant until hospital staff gave medication to quickly induce sleep. Would wake with normal mind, but fear horrific experience could happen again. (Never thinking could be drug side effect, questioned whether was fear of IVs. Eventually developed panic disorder associated with IVs.) Not until ER nurse educated me on strong link between Inapsine and anxiety, did I understand. Also, experienced physical "claustrophobic-like" sense as though bound. Strong desire to move. Threatened to rip out my IV. If no relief,could possibly have resorted to suicide. | Was given Inapsine and other anti nausea medications (including Phenergan) a few times over a period of about ten years for morning sickness and flu. Initially, I had no such side effect. My sensitivity changed to the point that I had an immediate anxiety experience after taking a suppository. Doctors never volunteered info about side effects, and last doctor said ER nurse who told me of side effect, didn't know what she was talking about. Have friend who responded so dramatically to Inapsine given in hospital for morning sickness, she literally ripped out hair from her head. | F | 42 | | 9/19/2007 | 1 | Had a kidney stone and compazine was not working so they switched me to droperidol | I was sedated, I could here people around me but I could not respond or speak for 6 hours | F | 37 | 1 times | 7/30/2007 | 1 | migraine | extreme agitation, dysphoria, felt like I was going to jump out of my skin, extreme panic | I was given this in IV form for my pain level 10 migraine. It is an awful medication. It makes you feel depressed for days afterwards. Doctors in the ER like to give it to pain patients so they don't have to "risk" treating them with pain killing medication. I find the side effects of Inapsine to be much worse than any painkiller I've been given for my migraines. I will never accept this med again. | F | 24 | 1 days | 6/2/2007 | 1 | nausea | Psychosis. It hurt to think. I wanted to rip my skin off and RUN. I was in the hospital with a kidney stone and was in a bed with an IV. I came very close to ripping the iv out and running through the halls. The doctors and nurses didn't think anything was wrong, so I had to wait for the drug to leave my system. One of the scariest experiences of my life. | F | 26 | 1 days | 4/9/2007 | 1 | HOSPITAL GAVE IT FOR ANXIETY | coma like effect, scary | F | 29 | 1 days | 11/5/2006 | 1 | nausea | Psychosis. The worst thing I've ever experienced in my life. Very antsy and brain not functioning well. Just the functioning of my brain was painful. It felt like the worst kind of mental illness imaginable- like being in hell. | Should be banned. | F | 35 | 1 times | 3/19/2006 | 1 | nausea | I had the same reaction to compazine. akathesia is what I think the reaction's called.it was like adernaline kept rushing through my veins. couldn't sit still felt like a panic attack. As I was trying to crawl out of my skin. Very scarey but the nurse reconized the reaction and gave me benadryl and before it could get really bad it was over. | I am now reading that there is also heart complications people have suffered from while takin inapsine. | F | 25 | 1 times | 2/21/2006 |
