| 1 | extreme vomiting during pregnancy | I thought I was going crazy inside my body, I thought I wanted and needed to die. I felt like my insides were moving constantly, while my outsides were sitting still. It was the craziest time of my life and I didn't know it was the medicine until I saw a commercial about a class action suit for people taking Reglan. I stopped taking and it took several weeks before I could go back to normal | Please NEVER take this med | F | 37 | 14 days 3X day | 4/5/2011 | 4 | GERD | mild drowsiness, and tiredness for the first few days. | I found Reglan to work very well for GERD and associated symptoms of bloating and nausea. The drowsiness went away after several days of taking the drug. Reglan should not be used continously for longer than 12 weeks, due to the risk of tardive dyskinesia. I am surprised by so many negative comments about this drug. I have found Reglan to be helpful, with little side effects. | M | 62 | 60 days 10 3X day | 3/26/2011 | 1 | GERD as a result of anxiety | Sever anxiety, insomnia, unable to stay still, stiff neck and paralyzing feeling in left arm,restless legs, numbness in face and neck, choking feeling | I was giving this drug through IV in the ER then prescribed it till i could follow up with my PCP. When I got to my PCP he said it was a terrible drug and he wanted me to throw it away in his office and not even take it home with me. I knew I had problems with anxiety, but it had never been as bad as the week i took this drug. It was like it would never go away and i thought i was going crazy, I convinced myself I had meningitis or a serious disc rupture. Which i kept trying to tell myself I'm only 25 that's probably not the case. My physical symptoms were very real and intense and no one told me the side effects of this drug. it should come with a disclaimer and you should have to sign before you agree to take it. I cant believe they would give someone as paranoid as me and who suffers from serious anxiety this drug. I have stopped taking It for about 24 hours but I still feel like my nerves are on a roller coaster and my neck is very stiff. Anyone with advise after having used this drug, please feel free to e mail me. | F | 25 | 5 days 10 3X day | 3/26/2011 | 1 | nausea | Absolutely crippling anxiety, also a complete loss of interest in life. Profound depression. Terrifying thoughts. I have NEVER felt that bad in my entire life. | This drug made me suicidal.I am lucky to be alive because I didn't realize until it got that bad that these were side effects of the drug. Thank God for this website!!! Needless to say I stopped taking this poison immediately and the suicidal ideation went completely away by the next day. I am still quite jittery and anxious but its only been 2 days (and compared to two days ago I guess you could say I'm doing fantastic!)Scariest experience of my life. DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT TAKING THIS DRUG!!! | F | 41 | 8 times 10 mg 3X day | 3/15/2011 | 1 | Intestional motility pro./ Nausea | social anxiety/ avoiding socailizing at all cost, choking when eating, biting mouth while eating, facial puckering without intending to, depression, legs crawling, blury vision, weight gain 60 lbs, cold yet sweating, extreme fatigue and lack of motivation | This is the only med that will make my bowels move so I was forced to either take the med and deal or go to the ER every week with am impaction and having intestional infections. God there has GOT TO be something else? Please comment if you know of anything | F | 40 | 1 years 1X AN | 3/14/2011 | 1 | Hiatal hernia, GERD | Burning and itching feet, severe muscle spasms, arm went to sleep, head and neck skin was crawling, difficulty swallowing. | 1st dose feet started itching within 30 mins. 2nd dose feet started itching, severe muscle spasms in neck and upper back, lasted about an hour. 23 hrs. later right arm felt like it was asleep. Next day difficulty swallowing and skin on head and neck crawling. Went to Urgent Care and they gave me Benadryl and I was able to swallow easily and they sent me home. Called dr. yesterday and today and she still hasn't called me back. | F | 49 | 0.5 days 5mg 4X day | 3/9/2011 | 1 | increase milk supply | depression, restlessness, disinterested in life, chills, fever, weird weight gain, constant headaches | I wanted to do whatever I could to get my milk supply to a viable level so that my son could get that nourishment... but taking this medicine is NOT the answer!!! I had a sudden onset of chills after a week of being completely unmotivated and disengaged from life, and stayed up all night with fever last night when I decided to be done with this medicine. I still have the chills and have been keeping my fever low grade with Tylenol. Still waiting for the headache to go away and to be over the depression. | F | 30 | 12 days 10 MG 3X day | 2/26/2011 | 1 | stomach issues | anxiety, depression and very tired | I would not reccommend this drug. For days I have been feeling very anxious and it's so scary. My mind continues to race! | M | 41 | 6 days 4X day | 2/23/2011 | 1 | surgery | After the Surgeon saw that I had a new baby at our meet up and then saw that I breastpumped RIGHT BEFORE surgery he prescribed me Reglan anyway, I had no idea about the medicine I took, nobody told me it would take my milk away, after that 3 days later a family member told me to stop taking it because of its side affects. I was definitley naive about this medicine I was only 19 and no one cared to tell me. | Should I sue the surgeon? Or just leave it alone? I can never again breastfeed my baby after 3 months of feeding, the affects were that detrimental even after pumping every day. | F | 20 | 3 days 6X day | 2/7/2011 | 1 | GERD | Extrapyramidal syndrome, permanent eyesight damage, vertigo that lasted for a month | On day 2, I noticed that my eyesight was blurry. I was dumb enough to take another pill, and ended up in the ER - I lost control of my neck, so my head started to move around scarily. The ER team gave me an antidote, so the cramps stopped, but for the entire next month I didn't feel like myself because of an uncomfortable vertigo. Oh, and my eyesight remained damaged, so I've worn glasses ever since. Feel free to e-mail me to discuss. | M | 19 | 2 days 10 mg 3X day | 2/3/2011 | 1 | nausea after surgery, then stomach | Diagnosed with Parkinson's, so the dr. stopped the Reglan. A neurologist specializing in Parkinson's finally gradually decreased the Parkinson's meds til they were stopped. This made the diagnosis Parkinsonism, a mimicker of Parkinson's. Parkinson's is a degenerative disease that doesn't get better and you never stop your meds. After a 4 yr. journey, though, this journey is over! | Mask-like face, unable to express emotions, standing, slow & shuffling gait, altered handwriting - all Parkinson's symptoms & all brought on by Reglan 1st administered in hospital to help with nausea & continued for 1 year. DO NOT TAKE REGLAN!!!!!!!! | F | 84 | 13 months 10 4X day | 2/2/2011 | 1 | colon cancer surgery | Started with arms reaching out.Toe curling,depression,walking blackouts,facial movement,hip thrusting, memory loss,dry mouth,hand clinching,trouble speeking, trouble sleeping,constipation.Tardive Dyskinesia-4 doctors. | Black box warning keeps people that took the drug for less than 90 days from taking them to court. It seems that if you take it for a short time and develop these many problems it must be a worse drug than they thought. I thought you had to take it for a long time for it to hurt you. Has anyone in my situation found anyone to help them legally? We need to help each other. | M | 54 | 30 days 10MG 1X day | 1/10/2011 | 4 | gastroparesis and nausea | Elevated prolactin level. A little fatigue but it does help my nausea. I realize that most people go to these sites only when they've had a problem. You could really scare yourself reading these discriptions. I have a reaction to just about all meds and I tolorated this one OK. It is not a drug I would take frequenty because it does have a bad side effect profile but once in a while it is ok. | F | 40 | 5 years 5mg 1X AN | 1/6/2011 | 1 | My urine was bad and had infection | tired, cunfused,I felt like i was becoming crazy and worst i held my husband and said to him hold me because i'm about to throw myself off the border really people don't take this medication.:( | just listen to me don't take this medication please! | F | 50 | 1 years 12 2X day | 12/22/2010 | 1 | gastroparesis | Depression, restlessness, suicidal thoughts, fears for sanity, panic attacks | I'm so glad I found this site and realized that it was the Reglan doing that to me! I've been off for a couple of days and I feel better now. There is hope! | F | 29 | 10mg 4X day | 12/11/2010 | 1 | Acid Reflux & Hiatal Hernia | It has been several years since I got off this Hellish drug. I am now suffering from restless leg and uncontrollable twitching in my legs at night. Also, always puckering my lips and mouth. My eye sight is also being affected. | DO NOT take this medication for any reason whatsoever. It needs to be banned from the market. The consequences of taking it will severely outweight the benefits. You will regret it for the rest of your life. | M | 41 | 105 days 20 4X day | 11/19/2010 | 1 | to alleviate nausea from migraine | tardive dyskinesia, insomnia, restless leg syndrome | After having this in the hospital to help relieve an extreme migraine..I could not stop moving my legs and hips. it lasted for two days, and I could barely sleep because of it. it was scary, and I was afraid it would never go away..thankfully it did. | F | 24 | 1 days IV..?mg 1X day | 11/16/2010 | 1 | nausea | felt like i was going to die depressed,sore stiff musles,tired exhausted but couldnt sleep didnt want to do anything | worst pill ever how can this be legal and not pot | M | 26 | 2 days 10 mg 3X day | 11/10/2010 | 5 | acid reflux | It was wonderful for me. I had constant stomach/acid reflux problems so bad it kept me up, caused uncontrollable dry coughing, couldn't eat anything without problems. This drug made it all go away in a few days. To bad its short term, after 3 months I had to stop taking it and all the symptoms prior to Reglan are back. | F | 54 | 90 days 10 1X day | 11/9/2010 | 1 | Gerd | This medication is horrible the cramps and diarrhea are non stop. Pains in the stomach and bowel are unbearable not to mention dizziness and headache. I will never touch this drug again | F | 57 | 2 days 4X day | 10/23/2010 |
