I take this only at bedtime. I had a constant feeling of "fullness", like I was going to throw-up. After 1 week with this rx I felt so much better.

Hard to remember to take it on time...cause you never know when you eat. And I had major side effects. I was tired all the time, muscle weakness, sleepy, and jittery. My brain was running 30 miles an hour. cant think straight. Be careful if you noticed any twitches, cause I couldn't stood still.

I had been suffering from Post Infectious Irritable Bowel Syndrom. After starting this medication along with the probiotic Florasol, I nausea disappeared as if by magic, like a light switch being turned off, or burning out. I'm not sure if it was only this med, or a combination of the two, but it worked and I finally feel back to normal after a year of feeling constantly sick to my stomach, loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting at times, and severe diarrhea. I have not had any side effects, but will ask the doctor to discontinue after a couple of months to see how I do, and to avoid the precautions that have been described that this drug may cause. Hope it helps others in a good way as well.Read More Read Less

Was given as pre-colonoscopy to prevent nausea. There was no nausea, but became dizzy, disoriented, lost all muscle control for a few minutes. Had issues with hands shaking, after a couple of hours, all was fine.

although it was effective in stopping my nausea and vomiting, by the 2nd day I was having severe side effects. Muscles spasms, severe anxiety attack, confusion, gasping for air, could not sit still. I felt like I was detoxing off of something. It was horrible. I rather continue to vomit than ever feel that way again

This medication allowed me to eat again. I had to take it when I was vomiting up everything. It was easy to take and no side effects. Short term use less than three months.

I've been on this medication for over 18 months and it is fantastic! I have no more problems as a result of my stomach not emptying. No negative side effects.

I am a 68 year old women, my stomach is 50% slower to empty as it should be, have pain in right upper quadrant 90% of the time and severe GERD. After 3 days my joints and muscles were so painful I could not sleep and was extremely stiff getting out of bed. I would rather have the pain than the side effects this drug caused after only 3 days, after discontinuing the drug I felt much better with 48 hrs and would never take this drug again.

our vet prescribed this because our dog has an enlarged eshophogus, and was throwing up everything she ate. She still cannot drink a lot of water without throwing it up right away, so her meals are 'slurries' of dog food and water --- seems to be working. We cut her medication in half (to 5mg) taken before a meal, and her 'confusion' factor seems to be subsiding.

Used for continuous nausea and gerd. Took for about 2 years. Developed vocal and throat problems severe enough to affect talking. Stopped and most symptoms went away. Have now been diagnosed with wheat,dairy,egg alergies and a candida overgrowth. Since changing diet ongoing health issues are gone also. Recommend this testing and not taking this drug.

I am 23 years old and 5 & 1/2 months pregnant, I have been taking this medicine for over a month 4x a day, i believe my dr prescribed it to me for heartburn. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND IT FOR ANYONE! Ive been hospitalized TWICE since taking this drug MIGRAINES, SPASMS, NAUSEA, SEVERE DROWSINESS, SEVERE STOMACH PAINS ETC have all occurred since being on this drug. Being pregnant I assumed headaches, nausea, pains were normaly symptoms, however after the nightmares, waking up every hr, hallucinating, mood swings, weight loss, back spasms, body jerking, migraines, loss of vision, unable to breathe at times, being able to walk for three days straight and finally the last straw being hospitalized for severe pre labor pains, i decided to look up the drug. For a moment i believed it was only me feeling this way due to my pregnancy, however after reading more about this drug i am shocked to see i am not the only one! I WOULD NOT TAKE THIS DRUG ANYMORE!!! I am in fear for the life of my unborn son, This drug needs to be banned IMMEDIATELY. If you know anyone who is taking this drug or are on it yourself, stop taking it, these side effects are PERMANENT!!!Read More Read Less
