| 1 | increase breastmilk supply | SEVERE Depression, inability to carry on with usual errands & chores, constant worry about loved ones, feelings of hopelessness, never have had any depression before & have ever had side effects from any other drug than this. | DO NOT TAKE THIS DRUG !! I wish I had never taken this drug. It did not even work to increase my milk supply (I pumped all- so I know it did not work) It did, however, throw me into a SEVERE depression & it took many months after the drug was stopped to pull out of it- no history of depression & uauslly do not have drug side effects therefore I think it must be very powerful. HATE THIS DRUG & WOULD NEVER GIVE IT TO A BABY/CHILD who can't speak for how they feel!! | F | 35 | 4 weeks | 9/30/2006 | 5 | naseau due2 delayed stomach empty | Muscle stiffness in my neck, jittery, insomnia | This medication completely cured my nauseau however I stopped taking it due to the side affects associated with Parkinson's Disease. | F | 26 | 4 days | 9/28/2006 | 1 | nausea before surgery | As soon as I received this horrible medication, I felt very warm all over and my face/body were bright red. After a few minutes it went away, but then I started shaking and my jaw was moving up and down on its own..severe leg pain also. | This medication should be taking off the market. I have lupus and have been on several medications, but none with the side effects like this one..I cannot believe they give this to babies too??? unbelievable! STAY AWAY FROM THIS*** | F | 42 | 1 days | 9/22/2006 | 1 | infant reflux | Jitterness, restlessness, uncontrollable muscle movements, the worst constipation and loss of appetite. | DO NOT i repeat DO NOT give this evil wicked drug to your baby it causes more harm... and he still would vomit! This drus is not worth it. | M | 1.3 | 4 days | 9/14/2006 | 1 | infant reflux | Jitterness, restlessness, uncontrollable muscle movements, the worst constipation and loss of appetite. | DO NOT i repeat DO NOT give this evil wicked drug to your baby it causes more harm... and he still would vomit! This drus is not worth it. | M | 1.3 | 4 weeks | 9/14/2006 | 1 | Acid Reflux | Severe depression, suicidal ideations, couldnt stop crying, couldnt get out of bed for 2 full weeks....no desire to dress, go out, or even shower, which I DO daily. I had to depend on friends and family to do everything for me.....Totally lost my appetite and 15 lbs which I couldnt afford to loose. I thought I was going out of my mind or having a nervouse breakdown....because I have never been depressed before this medication....I had to be put on Zoloft (anti-depressant) and the Dr said I will have to stay on it for approx six months in order for the drug to balance out the neurotransmitters in the brain that the Reglan MESSED UP | STAY AWAY FROM THIS DRUG......VERY SERIOUS SIDE EFFECTS AND IT'S NOT AS RARE AS MANUFACTURER TELLS YOU! | F | 59 | 4 weeks | 9/5/2006 | 1 | increase breast milk supply | restlessness, dry mouth, tongue and throat numb, difficulty speaking | I was taken to the ER because of the numbness in my mouth and difficulty breathing. The mental aspect of this drug caused my body to have a panic attack and hypervenilate. VERY SCARY!!! | F | 30 | 3 days | 8/31/2006 | 1 | prescribed during chemo | tremors, loss of appetite, depression, fatigue, confusion, dizziness, yellowed eyes and skin, slow movements, mask-like facial appearance. | My 83 year old father was prescribed Reglan two years ago when he underwent chemo/radiation for lung cancer. He has been seen regularly by his oncologist, neurologist, and internist. In February, 2006, he suffered a stroke. He recovered from the stroke symptoms, but has been going downhill fast. I was shocked to read where this drug should not be taken over 12 weeks. My poor father has been taking this drug daily for over 2 years! He has experienced all of the mentioned side effects, but none of our doctors suggested stopping it until yesterday, August 15, 2006! If he would have stayed on it, I truly believe he would have died. Please pay attention and ask questions. Doctors are not God, although some think they are. | M | 83 | | 8/16/2006 | 1 | gastric distress | severe bloating, severe farting, nose twitches, knocking knees,bad taste in mouth,all over feeling really bad | This drug gave me the vapors so bad,I was ask to take a leave from work. | F | 49 | 2 months | 8/14/2006 | 2 | nausea with migraine | restless legs, restless in general | worked for the nausea...just couldn't tolerate the side effects | F | 40 | 1 weeks | 7/17/2006 | 1 | acid reflux, nausea | severe depression, including crying spells, anxiety, jitters, decrease in vision, decrease in hearing, tremors of the hands | This medication should be taken off the market. Thank God a doctor recognized the symptoms and advised me to stop taking it immeditely. This stuff nearly did me in. | F | 76 | 6 weeks | 7/7/2006 | 1 | Colon resection | While taking- Jittery-needed to keep moving. Worst feeling of my life. Week after taking still Depressed and mentally dull. | Doctor did not tell me of side effects and nurses did not catch side effects while in hospital. Life changing drug. Hopefully I can get back to normal someday. | M | 39 | 4 days | 7/5/2006 | 1 | diabetic gastric stasis | The manufacturers of Reglan and its generic metoclopramide mention the link between the development of tardive dyskinesia and the drug on its labeling, however they suggest the incidence rarely occurs ... be aware that the FDA has approved Reglan for short-term use (4 to 12 weeks) only. | M | 29 | | 6/30/2006 | 5 | nausea with migraine | I haven't tried it yet....so I can't really say if I am satisfied with it. | F | 40 | | 6/29/2006 | 1 | Stroke, trouble swallowing,vomiting | Severe depression, severe leg pain, contraction of muscles, parkinson like tremors of legs and arms, vomiting. Most symtoms went away after 3 days off the drug. | Would not recommend this drug for anyone! Needs a black label warning for the elderly. | M | 68 | 3 weeks | 6/19/2006 | 1 | For GORD | tired, lost interest in everything, hard to concentrate, sleeping excessively | taking 10mg at night. Took several months before symptoms started and gradually got worse. When came off took a week before I felt back to normal | F | 47 | 6 months | 6/12/2006 | 1 | extreme GERD | Breast milk production - I've never been pregnant a day in my life EVER. My breasts were so full of milk all the time that they were in pain and I was having to wear breast pads because of the lactation. I also experienced the anxiety and jitters and severe depression. | I wouldn't recommend it - there are just too many side effects. i switched to Nexium and feel much better. | F | 30 | 3 months | 6/9/2006 | 1 | Vomiting and nausea | Depression, sadness, thoughts of suicide, personality change, weepiness, heaviness/twitchiness in arms and hands, jerky movements of hands, involuntary movements of hands, prickly feeling in hands, extreme drowsiness/sleepiness, fatigue, bizarre dreams, some anxiety | The dr who prescribed Reglan for me did not mention any of the side effects. I have recently been dealing with depression so this medicine affected me negatively in less than 24 hours. It DID help with the nausea/vomiting, but at what cost? I stopped taking Reglan after 3 doses. The side affects are so terrible that I will not be taking it again. | F | 39 | 2 days | 6/5/2006 | 1 | migraine | akathesia-felt like i was going to jump out of my skin. my heart raced and i kept wanting to rip at my skin! It was the worst feeling in the world. Felt like I was going psychotic. | "they" say this is rare but I have heard far to many of the same stories. Be careful-if you feel like this after taking reglan, ask for benedryl IMMEDIATELY!!! | F | 25 | 6 times | 6/2/2006 | 1 | Idiopathic gastroparesis | After being on Reglan for 3 years, I experienced severe (suicidal) depression, bloating, edema, weight gain, prolactinemia (extremely high prolactin blood levels which caused my dr. to tell me I had a brain tumor & caused my ovaries to shut down, throwing me into premature menopause at the age of 34!! | After going off Reglan, my prolactin levels went back to normal, but my reproductive system was shot! Started on Propulsid - which works like a charm! When it was pulled from the market, I got into a study for 6 months (lots of EKGs!) Now I get the drug from the internet (Mexico, etc.) this is a little scary, but at least I can eat and poop!!(Without constant nausea & stomach pain!) Currently investigating accupuncture & colon hydrotherapy to get off all meds! | F | 45 | 3 years | 5/26/2006 |
