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)

 1  Milk production Panic attacks, questioning mental state, sleeplessness. I started taking Reglan to increases milk supply, which helped. The downside is that after two+ months I felt like I was losing it. I was super paranoid, sleepless nights, feared nighttime, hearing things, extremely anxious to the point I thought my house was haunted (brand new house, not haunted). I hated being alone, I felt trapped and useless until I discontinued taking the drunk. Slowly feeling normal again. F 32 3 months

 2  Lactation I took only one dose, 10 mg, for two days. I ceased taking the drug upon the onset of side effects. Subsequently I endured horrible diarrhea and cramping for multiple days. I took this medicine to increase my milk volume. It definitely did the job. My milk doubled in volume. My side effects began with horrible intestinal pain and gas. It followed with 4 days of explosive diarrhea. Immodium and pepto didn't touch my symptoms. The only thing that worked was complete bowel rest (aka no food) for two days. This is hard to do when nursing. F 34 2 days

 1  For neause do to headaches Give through an IV at the ER caused my are to swell up from the elbow down!!! I was give this drug at the ER. I am also almost 3 months pregnant. They gave to me through and IV and after about 15-20 minutes after it was give I'm arm started to hurt and feel strange so I paged for the nurse and once she final came after about 30 minutes. I removed my arm from under the sheet and here my are was swelled from the elbow down to bout right before my wrist. And it hurt and ways throbbing and very red. The nurse stopped the salean drip but was going to leave the needle in my arm. All she did was put an ice pack on my arm. The wanted to put another IV in my other are and give me more Medicean. They then got mad because I refuse any more treatment. This drug is not safe and I wasn't even sure if it would harm my baby or not!!! F 22 1 days

 1  acid reflux I only took one tablet before bedtime not the four times a day as instructed for acid reflUx. I was prescribed this drug and not warned or told of any side effects. I was on it for a year and a half, much longer than the recommended months. I now have extrapyramidal syndrome. This developed as soon as I stopped taking reglan. Reglan masks its damage, you don't know until its done its damage. F 48 1 years

 1  Pre-op medication i got the reglan IV push and as soon as it hit my bloodstream, I immediately had a feeling of impending doom. I became anxious and couldn't sit still. Literally was climbing the walls and trying to get out of the hospital. My legs felt restless and I couldn't stop moving them. My mom was with me and she got real nervous. Finally I was able to talk and said, "get the doctor". I'm an RN and I had no clue this was a side effect. Scared me so bad that the Anestheiologist had to come give me a sedative. I feel this medication should have a black box warning and should be reevaluated for use of so many different diagnosis. M 22 1 days

 1  GERD Needs to be taken off market. This drug is dangerous! My mother was given Reglan post hiatal hernia surgery. About 2 weeks after the surgery she was taken to ER with stroke like symptoms. The doctors did not consider drug reaction therefore she was sent back home only to be back in ER one week later with dizziness/weakness after stopping Reglan (the day before). She wants to sleep 24/7 and is shaky, dizzy, has blank stare, has severe neck pain, etc. Doctors gave run tons of tests and everything is fine so they now believe we have to wait for this drug to be out of her system and pray there are no permanent issues.
