| 1 | Gerd | Suicidal thoughts/ ideations and also mild homicidal ideations which I've never felt or thought like that in my life ! It's been 3 years and I'm not the same been on multiple antidepressants with not much help ! Some helps and some make me worst ! Reglan almost took my life I pray and cling to my family and pray everyday that one day I can be and feel normal ! I can’t go out with friends anymore and have a drink etc just be me ! All that has changed for me | It's also hard for me to work feeling like this ! The depression and muscle twitching is still happening ! I do feel like this medicine is made to be for POPULATION CONTROL ! I don't trust the gov neither big pharma I'll never take it AGAIN ! | M | 26 | 1 days 10 1X day | 12/11/2023 | 1 | Esophageal spasms | Terrible panic, anxiety, unable to sleep, clenching jaws, hypersensitive to sound and light for years afterwards. | It completely changed my life at 42 years of age. After 14 years of crying every time I tried to talk about it, I was treated for PTS. It been over 25 years, and I am still dealing with problems. I can't unclench my jaw, I still have sensitivity towards noises, anxiety, and have bouts of depression. I've been on two antidepressants for as long as a year, but have never felt normal since taking Reglan. I've tried to warn people about this drug for many years. I'm thankful I had loving people surrounding me through it all. I believe this drug hurts at least as many people as it helps. I wish they'd take it off the market. I fear I will get it again by mistake one day. | F | 70 | 2 days 30 mg 2X day | 8/22/2023 | 1 | Nausea | I got it with akathisia (intense restlessness), crying spells, loss of appetite, loss of libido, depression, extreme anxiety etc. This lead to a prescription cascade that only made me worse. I am 15 months off Reglan and 3 months off all meds. Slowly recovering. If I didn’t have a small child for whom to stay alive I don’t think I would have made it. | M | 34 | 12 days 10mg 3X day | 7/4/2023 | 1 | Nausea | Suicidal thoughts, severe anxiety, severe depression, akathisia | This drug should be banned. They who prescribe this should end up in the electric chair for what they are doing to people | M | 45 | 1 days 10 1X day | 6/13/2023 | 1 | Headache | Dystonic reaction, hallucinations, derealization, depersonalization, agoraphobia, monophobia, daily panic attacks, severe depression, Akathisia, legs stopped working, muscle tremors, severe fatigue, chills, fainting, diarrhea, nausea, dry heaving, loss of appetite, acid reflux, shortness of breath, red burning skin, numbness in limbs, headache, restlessness, chest pain | Was given this drug via IV ONE TIME DOSE! It has now been 5 months and I am still completely disabled feels like I'm living in a dream, scared all of the time, can't eat, no joy, suffering for months on end. Please email me if anything helped you or if this nightmare will eventually end!! | F | 23 | 1 days 10mg 1X day | 4/15/2023 | 1 | Migraine | I was given Reglan through IV in the ER, along with Toradol and Benadryl for a migraine. As soon as it hit my veins, I went from having a casual conversation with the nurse to hyperventilating, feeling like my heart was pounding out of my chest, and wanting to rip the IV out and run away. At the same time, I was terrified to move because I was convinced that something terrible was going to happen if I did. I had never had a panic attack before, but later understood that's what it was. This was back in early September 2022. Since then, I've had ongoing problems with anxiety and panic, and for some reason it gets especially bad when I notice my own heartbeat. I hate it. I'm slowly getting better at managing my thoughts (which love to spiral into panic at the slightest bodily sensation), but I hate it. Wouldn't wish this on anybody, and I hope it goes away soon. I would give anything to just feel NORMAL again. | Among all the reviews I've read about this drug, people either love it and have absolutely zero problems, or they experience the worst possible problems. Please don't risk it. There are other medications that you can take. Reglan is NOT worth the gamble. | F | 25 | 1 days IV 1X AN | 2/15/2023 | 1 | Horrible morning sickness | Ive been traumatized taking this drug for nausea and vomiting I felt like running out of the ER. It gave me panic attack and anxiety I thought it was just in my head until I searched it up. Dont recommend this at all. | F | 24 | 2 weeks 1X day | 1/13/2023 | 1 | Nausea/Vomiting/GERD | I started experiencing severe depression, anxiety, agitation and insomnia very shorty after starting the medication. I was so restless and this medication made me suicidal. I was having such severe anxiety that my anxiety medication couldn't even bring me out of it. Horrible experience. | Definitely would not recommend, especially if you already have mental health issues. | F | 28 | 7 days 5 2X AN | 11/21/2022 | 1 | Gastro pari sis | Teeth clenching and pressing tongue to roof of mouth | Custom dental guard ineffective. Jaw and face pain. Tongue pain. Headaches. | M | 61 | 5 days 10 2X day | 4/15/2022 | 1 | stomach pain and nausea | severe dizziness and shaking in my right foot....plus I could not sit still | I had to take a sleeping pill in order to still my shaking all over my body...I was in rehab.for weeks before an outside doctor realized my side effects was caused by the reglan which could have caused permanent damage to my nervous system as soon has I was taken off it the shaking in my foot stopped except for a twitch in my foot still... | F | 80 | 2 months 10mg 2X day | 4/12/2022 | 1 | Vision loss | I we r to the ER for some weird acute vision loss and they thought it was a migraine. They gave me this and within minutes I felt I had to break out of the chair and rip out the IV. I couldn't not move my legs or they would be severely uncomfortable. I became very anxious and as someone with bipolar disorder I was freaking out that this may induce an episode. Once they gave me more Benadryl I was fine. | M | 21 | 1 days 1X day | 4/12/2022 | 1 | Anesthesia cocktail contained it | Anxiety was off the charts and a panic attack that wouldn't stop ....bonus throwing up couldn't stop. I was given drugs to help relieve effects, my answer I got up off the operating table. New doc, new cocktail with zolfran. I would never allow it to be used on me again. Thank God for the anesthesiologist figured it out. I tend to think it wasn't the first time he had seen the reaction of anxiety and terror, cared to find a way to not have it happen. The surgeon knew, it must be cheap or they get bonus for using reglan. | F | 38 | 1 days 10 mg 1X day | 4/3/2022 | 1 | Nausea, suspected gastroperisis | Depression and anxiety. Dr never said not to take for more than 12 weeks. Was put on depression meds and even testosterone to try and make me feel better yet reglan was the cause all along. Been off of it for a month now and my anxiety is debilitating at this point. Cant stop movine my arms and touching my face, legs or hair. Now on buproprion and hydroxozine to help with my anxiety/panic attacks. This drug should be banned!! | F | 42 | 12 months 10mg 4X day | 3/8/2022 | 1 | Gerd/hiatal hernia | Reglan made me suicidal depressed almost took my life !!!

Reglan is the only drug that would help my nausea I tried odansatrun and that doesn't help. | I've taken Reglan for 6 years. And now I'm on omeprazole so I'm going to try to wean off of Reglan. Right now I'm down to two pills a day. I have to drink a lot of water. If I can burp it helps my nausea and when I drink water that helps me burp. | F | 67 | 2 days 10mg. 4X day | 4/17/2021 | 1 | ER visit abdominal pain | I had the worst experience with this drug. I already have anxiety but I can usually semi manage it. Not even 5 minutes after this was inserted into my IV, I freaked out. I got extremely hot, sweating, shaky. I went into a full anxiety attack. Went to the bathroom to splash my face and catch my breath from under my mask, it didn't help. I asked my nurse if I could get some fresh air and even that did not feel like enough. Had to get a shot for anxiety cause I could not calm down. After the shot, I felt a lot better. I would not recommend this for anyone who has anxiety. I literally felt like the walls were closing in on me and I was gonna die. | Horrible | F | 33 | 1 days 1X day | 4/17/2021 | 1 | Vomiting/nausea | I had this injected into me ONE time for severe vomiting/nausea I was having. Within seconds of it hitting me I instantly went into a terrible panic attack. I have never had a panic attack in my life. It was HORRIFYING. some much uncontrollable anxiety hit my chest, my heart started racing and I couldn't sit still. I truly felt like I was going crazy. I got SO hot and wanted to rip my clothes off. I felt trapped and scared. I have never experienced this in my life and would never ever want to again. It wore off about 10-15 mins later but I was still very uneasy/jittery the rest of my night. I legit almost ripped that crap off of my arm and ran out of the hospital. | F | 26 | 1 days 1X day | 3/7/2021 | 2 | Gerd/Hiatal Hernia | Took reglan last year in July ! It's now feb 21,2021 and I'm still not feeling like myself completely derealized !

Can't eat. Can barely swallow meds. Sleep is gone. And I have more difficulty breathing now than I did when I was on it. Also my bp and pulse are taking it very hard. | I would rather puke up every meal than deal with this. My body can't handle this. I wish this on nobody. | F | 37 | 6 months 10mg 3X day | 2/13/2021 | 1 | Gerd | Anxiety. I never had anxiety before. It started subtly then got worse. I didn't put it together for a while but stopped abruptly after taking this for 6 weeks. Had severe depression for a couple days. Then it was anxiety for the last two weeks. I think it's getting better with each passing day but it's still here. I'm terrified it won't go away. The side effects of this drug are life changing. This should not be prescribed for anything. It messes with your dopamine receptors. | F | 37 | 6 weeks 3x/day 3X day | 1/14/2021 |
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.
