I was given Reglan as treatment for migraine headaches, and became very restless, depressed, angry, and had thoughts of suicide. I could not sit still or stand still, and nothing I did would make this feeling any better. This effect lasted for about 8 hours after the dosage. I didn't connect it with the Reglan until I took it a second time. I don't know if Reglan is similar to Compazine, but I was also given IV Compazine in the E.R. for migraine, and the effects were 10 times worse. I honestly think that if my husband had not been with me both times, and knew to look for side effects, I don't know what I would have done to end this horrible feeling. I found out later that my father had been given Reglan for his stomach, and ended up so depressed that my mother took his hunting rifle and all the knives out of the house because my dad was having thoughts of suicide. He ended up checking into a phychiatric hospital. When he got off the Reglan, he was totally fine and back to normal. When I told my doctor about these symptoms, the doctor chuckled and said, "I've never heard of that side effect with either of these drugs." My dad's doctor had the same reaction about the Reglan, but changed his mind when he saw how different my dad acted on Reglan as opposed to off Reglan.
