DO NOT take this medicine!! I watched this medicine slowly take my mother away from me. She was on it for 7 months and only off of it for 2 weeks until she finally commited suicide. Yes, she killed herself from this medicine. This medication NEEDS TO BE TAKEN OFF OF THE MARKET!! She had anxiety, depression, confusion, muscle ticks, suicidal thoughts, no appetite, constant diarrhea and lost down to...

I just had my 2nd child on 10-17-07 (a healthy baby girl) and a month later my milk dried up (i was breast feeding) so my obgyn prescribed this medicine for me and it helped. I was completely dried up and it brought my milk supply back and a better supply then I had before. The only side-effect I had was I was sleepy for about 30mins to an hour after i would take the medication. which kinda sucked because i had to take the medicine 4x a day for a week.

This drug caused me to feel VERY depressed and hopeless. I had to stop taking this med. It did help empty my stomach, but it was not worth the side effect.

This medication basically did nothing for my gastroparesis and I would not recommend spending money on a drug that has no benefit.

Within two days of taking 10mg. three times a day I began to have tremors and had to stop taking it. Although it helped my stomach, it wasn't worth the tremors.

Was on 10 mg. 3 times/day for only a couple of days. Was prescribed it to stimulate my colon. Didn't work. Felt extremly lethargic, very sleepy. Eye muscle has been twitching since first dose. Can't stop it. Very anxious, feels like my skin is crawling, can't relax, can't sleep tho very tired. Quit taking it on my own. Bad stuff for me.

This medication was prescribed for our 18 month old for Reflux. As soon as she started the Reglan, she went from being vibrant and happy to sullen and exhausted. She stopped eating, became afraid of every little noise, was so tired all the time she could barely function, cried easily, constantly complained of itching, didn't want anything against her skin (wouldn't put clothes on), had dark circles under her eyes, lost the color in her face, had horrible dreams that woke her up screaming several times a night, developed a fear of falling(we think she was dizzy), blinked her eyes constantly, lost interest in all toys and activities, all within one week of being on the medication. She is no longer on it and has returned to her vibrant, happy, playful self. Read More Read Less

As it says in the side effects, it may cause shuffling, mask like facial expression, etc. One of the first side effects I noticed was that my handwriting became very small and neat. But, hey, who complains to their doctor about that. Turns out, I'm one of the very few people who gets the side effect that it causes medically induced Parkinsons. I stopped the medication and now my handwriting is as messy as ever.
