Get Started:
Reglan has a broad range of side effects and adverse symptoms. As a prescription drug treatment for nausea, vomiting and gastroesophageal reflux (GERD), it was the subject of a Food and Drug Administration (FDA) advisory in February 2009 mandating a Black Box warning for Reglan about its risk of inducing tardive dyskinesia (TD). Reglan affects the function of the stomach and intestines, but it can have many serious side effects.

Reglan can cause symptoms that look like Parkinson's disease, a neurological syndrome characterized by:
Reglan can also make an individual's Parkinson's disease worse, and someone with Parkinson's disease should avoid taking Reglan.
