Severe frequent urination every 1/2 hour, sometimes leaking without knowing, negating effect of taking detrol la which I need to take from a prior brain injury. Taking reglan for one week now after being diagnosed with gastric paresis (delayed stomach emptying) and refleux which is being treated with prevacid. I am very concerned and scared about what I am reading here. My dosage is 5mg before lunch, dinner then one at bedtime. Has anyone else had this problem?

I just was told to take Reglan, 10 mgs. 1 at bedtime. I looked this medicine up on the internet since it is new to me. Thank God I did just that, because now I am going to call my dr. back up and tell him I am not taking this medication.
This sounds like a very dangerous medication and with all of my other problems, I certainly don't need what appears to be terrible side effects of Reglan.

My 8 year old daughter was prescribed a low-dose of Reglan each night at bedtime to prevent morning nausea and motion sickness. For that it worked. Unfortunately, over time she became more and more "worried' then "anxious" and even developed obsessive-compulsive symptoms and became nearly psychotic. The doc who prescribed it did mention to look for "tics" but not anxiety (altho he did confirm later that it "occassionally" occurs). She was on it for three weeks before we made the connection. The psychiatrist refused to entertain the thought that her psychiatric problems were due to Reglan reaction, but after consulting other physicians and researching internet sites, we were convinced this is what she indeed suffered. It took nearly three months for her anxiety to completely vanish and I am happy to say, she is fine now. Her stomach aches come and go, but treatment with diet and allergy elimation seems to help. This drug can be dangerous but doctors should be better informed and equiped to deal with a very-real side-effect.

I have had the noticeable fatigue, depression and dizziness. I take 5 mg three times a day and 10 at bedtime. I have been taking Metoclopramide since Thanksgiving. I noticed last week that I have begun lactating and leaking.

I am a 66 year old female, and now taking Citalopram 20mg, and Requip. I was prescribed Metoclopramide Tab 10mg. for acid reflux. I was to take them four times a day, 30 minutes before eating, and at bedtime. I took the first pill at lunch. Shortly after, I became very weak and nauseated. I went to bed. I was able only to get back and forth to the bathroom. I skipped the dinner pill, and felt a little better. But I took the bedtime pill, and became weak, nauseated, and had arm and hand tremors. The next day, I took one more pill, with the same effects. My son found on the computer, the side effects were similar as mind, and was worse with seniors. No more pills did I take. It took 6-8 hours to get back close to normal. That was yesterday. I still feel a bit panicky at times, fearing it is happening all over again.
My husband had taken Reglan years ago, with no bad side effects...
