Reglan Reviews

800-889-3898

Generically known as metoclopramide, Reglan is an oral medication that may be prescribed to treat:

• diabetic gastroparesis, a delay in the movement of food from the stomach to the intestines
• gastrointestinal reflux disease (GERD), a condition in which stomach acid backs up into the esophagus and results in heartburn and chest pain
• lactation complications in new mothers.

In many cases, patients report that Reglan is effective at reducing nausea, vomiting, heartburn and chest pain.

However, in rare instances, Reglan can cause some mild to severe side effects, some of which may be life threatening.

Anyone injured after taking Reglan will likely have a legal claim against Schwartz Pharma, the makers of Reglan. Prospective plaintiffs can find out if they are entitled to a settlement by meeting with an experienced Relgan attorney.

Reviews of Reglan Side Effects

When Reglan side effects arise, in most cases, they are mild and will clear up when the course of Reglan is finished. Reglan reviews of minor, fleeting side effects have involved:

• breast swelling
• changes in menstrual cycles
• diarrhea
• dizziness
• drowsiness
• fatigue
• headache
• increased frequency or urination
• insomnia (or other sleeping problems)
• nausea
• restlessness.

Unfortunately, some Reglan reviews have reported the development of more serious side effects, including:

• agranulocytosis, a condition characterized by low levels of white blood cells (If left untreated, agranulocytosis can result in osteoporosis and other irreversible conditions.)
• aldosteronism, a condition in which the adrenal glands produce excessive hormones and cause low blood-potassium levels (If left untreated, aldosteronism can be fatal, as it may result in heart attack, heart failure, stroke or kidney failure.)
• depression and/or suicidal thoughts
• hallucinations
• jaundice
• neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS), a life-threatening neurological condition marked by delirium, fever and muscle rigidity
• seizures
• severe allergic reaction
• tachycardia, an arrhythmia marked by increased heart rate
• tardive dyskinesia, involuntary, repetitive writhing movements affecting the face, trunk and/or limbs.

Reglan Reviews: Withdrawal Symptoms

Some patients have reported experiencing some withdrawal symptoms after stopping a course of Reglan. Headaches, dizziness and/or nervousness are the most commonly reported withdrawal symptoms listed in Reglan reviews.

To minimize the chances of developing Reglan withdrawal symptoms, it's important that patients work with their doctors to develop an appropriate regimen for taking and discontinuing use of Reglan.

Following Negative Reglan Reviews…

Patients injured after taking Reglan should:

• Seek immediate medical attention to prevent further health complications.
• Work with their doctor to find an alternative to the Reglan drug.
• Meet with an experienced Reglan lawyer, once their health is stable, to find out if they are entitled to a settlement for their injuries and losses.

To encourage injured parties to learn more about their legal rights, Reglan attorneys offer these consultations for free. As further incentive, Reglan lawyers will delay payment for their services until (or unless) the case is won.
