The doctors or pharmacist never informed me of the side effects of reglan. I saw that there is a law suit on the makers of reglan. I have noticed some side effects like mood changes, hair loss, it's weird. Does anyone else take it? Do you have problems?
thanks

" I took it for a couple of months and it helped me with constant nausea. I gained back my weight and no longer need it. My side effects were just a little bit of twitching in certain muscles almost like drinking too much coffee. I know certain meds help certain people. I was desperate and it worked for me. I think I had drug induced Gastroparesis I failed the test for the Gastroparesis and was immediatly put on Reglan I was soooo scared to take it but was extremely sick and lost 30lbs in 2 months and I wasnt even over weight to beguin with so if you need it take it.I believe I don not have the Gastroparesis anymore but I will always have my Reglan handy incase I fall ill.

" I only took it for two weeks. Then the GI doc took me off of it because I don't have any evidence of gastro issues besides the inflamed stomach. He said that it has some really annoying side affects so it was better to get off of it.

By the way, I noticed that I am not able to eat as much because nothing is helping with gastric dumping so I have to eat much smaller and less frequent meals. Guess that's a good thing for my waist though. "
