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  Migraine with aura in er Gave me the worst panic attack of my life. I have panic disorder, so I deal with them regularly, but this was amplified by 10. I thought I was gonna die. I felt like I couldn't catch my breath. I was shaking uncontrollably. And my teeth wouldn't stop cattering. It did calm down with the benadryl, but I felt on the verge of panic and despair the entire night and next day. I finally got ahold of my doctor and was told it was safe to take my prescription Adavan. It helped, but I am still very anxious all day about everything and depressed. It's been 3 days. I will never take this again and do not recommend it to anyone. F 38 0 days

 1  Severe Migraine/ nausea, vomiting, I took Reglan once before when I was younger for a kidney stone and I had the same feelings. I thought maybe because I was younger I was just making things up. Nope! Took it in July for a sever migraine attack. I was vomiting left and right. They administered the dose(I do not recall how many mg) of Reglan and Benadryl and I immediately felt this warm rush across my chest that instantly made me anxious. I felt as if someone was pushing on my chest. I recall crying and jumping on top of the bed telling then nurse to take the medicine out of me. I went to a very well known hospital in Michigan rated the top in the world. But they were not prepared for reaction I had with the medication and honestly me as well. At the end of the night I had my sister, mother and 2 other nurses holding me down. I do not recommend it for people that experience anxiety. I’m a medical assistant but I am not a doctor. Definitely ask your provider if this medicine is for you. But from my experience it’s made my anxiety 1000 times worst even after. The “migraine-mix” did not work for me what’s so ever and neither did Reglan. Now whenever I go to a health professional I tell them I am allergic to Reglan... F 23 0 days

 1  Gastritis Akathisia, anxiety, panic, suicidal thoughts, suicidal ideation, depression, scared to be alone, depersonalization Please listen and take these reviews seriously. This drug ruined my life in a matter of 3 weeks while being a first time mom. It’s been 4 months since I’ve stopped it and still experiencing torturous side effects. Akathisia being the worst one. I feel like I’m being constantly electrocuted, my nerves are on fire 24/7, I think about suicide everyday because I truly cannot live with these symptoms. Please don’t take this drug, I came to find out it’s an old school antipsychotic, crosses the blood brain barrier, and a dopamine antagonist. This drug should be banned, and I’m willing to get through this just to do something about this later and to get this drug off the market. This is not how I wanted to be after giving birth and now I have a 6 month old baby on top of dealing with these horrific symptoms. F 24 3 weeks

 1  Nausea I was given one dose through an IV in the ER for nausea. It's been over 2 and a half years since and I still haven't recovered. Horrific akathisia, constant sensation of being struck by lightning, feeling like my skin is slowly being peeled off but on the inside, a horrific sensation inside every nerve in my body, intrusive thoughts and urges, a need to escape my body at all costs, OCD, hand, eye, and tongue tics, a feeling that it's excruciating to lie still, insomnia, inability to tolerate food, etc. It is constant unbearable torture. Do not take this. Ever. Especially if you have an MTHFR or CYP mutation, health issues, or take any other medication. F 26 1 days

 1  Bloating/Gerd Intense restlessness (akathisia) did not sleep for 18 days. Still have akathisia 16 months later. Facial and trunk dystonia, jaw locking, jerking, involuntary movements in hand/feet, gastroparesis, hallucinations, paranoia, OCD, cannot lie down, difficulty walking and speaking at times. Suicidality. Have about 50 symptoms including vision and hearing. I also lost my sense of smell. Research CYP450 enzymes I have multiple polymorphisms in Cyp2d6. Yolande Lucire tells it like it is. Intolerance to other drugs/vitamins/foods that were OK before reaction. Probably have mild Tardive Dyskinesia as well but waiting up to three years to see if it goes away. Do not take. Risks far outweigh benefits. People commit suicide because side effects are so bad. I'm just about hanging in there. F 41 7 months
