Reglan Tablets

For those who experience nausea, heartburn, or other digestive problems, Reglan (metoclopramide) has been their saving grace. Reglan provides temporary relief of pain and discomfort associated with conditions such as heartburn. Available through a prescription in oral solution and tablet form, it is a convenient option for patients who experience digestive problems due to pregnancy, chemotherapy, diabetes, or another medical condition that inhibits the stomach from emptying properly into the intestine.

Though it has proven beneficial for some patients, there are serious side effects associated with Reglan, particularly if taken in large quantities or for an extended period of time. As with any prescription medication, it is important to follow the dosing instructions exactly and not take more than the advised dose for the allowed period of time.

Metoclopramide Oral Solution

Reglan metoclopramide oral solution is an easily digestible orange liquid that comes in doses of 5mg to 20mg. Advised for adults only, it is recommended that the patient only use metoclopramide oral solution for a maximum of 12 weeks. Metoclopramide oral solution is meant as a medication of last resort for patients who do not respond to conventional therapy for acid reflux and nausea.

Reglan Oral Disintegrating Tablets

Reglan tablets are another way to take the drug to alleviate your nausea or heartburn. These white, 10mg pills dissolve easily and absorb into the body quickly. As with the oral solution, Reglan tablets are meant to be taken as a method of last resort for those patients who are unable to respond to other treatments. Tablets are prescribed by a physician to be taken over the short term in the specified doses.

Reglan Side Effects

Reglan has serious side effects associated with it, particularly for those who take the tablets or oral solution in high doses or for longer than 12 weeks. Metoclopramide is associated with depression and suicide in patients who have not taken the medication as directed. Metoclopramide is also associated with the serious neurological disorder, tardive dyskinesia. TD is characterized by uncontrolled movements of the limbs or face and is a life-altering disorder that may not be reversible. Symptoms can include:

Grimacing
Lip smacking
Uncontrolled mouth movements
Facial twitching
Tongue protrusions
Uncontrolled movements of the fingers

If you or a loved one has been diagnosed with tardive dyskinesia after taking Reglan for a gastric condition, contact an experienced Reglan attorney who can fight for the compensation you deserve.
