User Reviews for metoclopramide oral

My husband's Nephrologists prescribed this drug for him to keep him from feeling sick all the time and for coughing. After taking for one day, he cannot stop coughing and can hardly speak. He cannot walk unassisted, has nightmares, falls asleep while talking, feels bloated, has swelling all over his body and cannot concentrate. He should have gone to the hospital, but didn't think he could make it down the stairs. He stopped taking this drug and within 24 hours - his cough is subsiding and he is more alert. I cannot thank these reviews enough for making me aware of the side-effects of this drug. None of this was mentioned at the pharmacy when I picked this medication up and/or is it mentioned in the paperwork which accompanies this medication from the pharmacy. My husband is also on kidney dialysis, is a severe diabetic and is a post 6 by-pass heart surgery patient. I'm sure this all attributed to his side-effects, but no mention of any of these reactions was noted by the pharmacy. The only side-effect mentioned on the paperwork were "may cause diarrhea, headache, dizziness or drowsiness."Read More Read Less

My wife was perscribed this medication due to low milk production , we have encountered a side effect that they never said anything about. my infant child has started to have milk production after only one weeks usage.

I was feeling sick every morning that I was waking up due to a previous bad drug that was prescribed to me...(that other drug gave me an ulcer). I went to a specialist and put a scope down to my stomach and they found that my food wasn't digesting properly. Metoclopramide has helped me greatly. I only take it twice a day but it has eliminated my upset stomach and feeling of vomiting. I didn't take it for a day and my upset stomach came back. The only bad experience I had with this drug is one night I had about 3-4 alcoholic drinks and then I got tunnel vision, light headed, and I passed out (fell to the floor) for a few seconds. That was my fault though because I was advised not to drink. Read More Read Less

I continue to feel stuffed, nauseous

I was prescribed Reglan due to decrease milk production for nursing. The drug did the job and doubled my production, but caused severe fatigue and headaches for the first 3 weeks of treatment. Now my thyroid as enlarged and I am healthy and have not taken any other Rx.

My daughter has cystic fibrosis and had a nissen surgery b/c of vomiting. She was released from the hospital 3 days later. We were told to give her 12mls every 4 hours instead of 1.2mls. She was over dosed and vomits more.

I took this for severe nausea and a strong feeling of wanting to throw up.It did a great job for my symptoms but I am left with throat spasms and trouble speaking. I was on it for two years. The spasms got really severe and my new doctor told me to stop this medication. I have been of it about two years and still have spasms though not as bad.

I take this only at bedtime. I had a constant feeling of "fullness", like I was going to throw-up. After 1 week with this rx I felt so much better.

I just started taking this medication 50 mg for severe nausea and vomitting and it has only made things worse! My doctor prescribed it to me saying it would subside the nausea but it would make me sleepy. It was more like completely non-functional! I felt even worse than before, I could barely walk to the bathroom. It made me extremely tired but no matter what I did I could not sleep. All night I had weird dreams that would wake me up every hour, I'm not sure if thats a side effect or just me. All I know is that it didnt work for me at all.Read More Read Less

SHE NOW HAS IRREVERSIBLE PARKINSON'S LIKE SYMPTOMS (TARDIVE DYSKINESIS) SHE HAS ALMOST ALL THE SO CALLED RARE SEVERE SIDE EFFECTS AND HAD 2 MAJOR FALLS SHE IS VERY UNSTEADY AND NOW USES A WALKER, CAN'T SIT, STAND OR EVEN WALK! WETS, DROLLS, SHAKES, TICS, IRRITABILITY I COULD GO ON...SHE IS NO LONGER THE PERSON I KNEW!

i really liked this medicine overall, but for me,the medicine made me very very sleepy and excessively hungry.

This drug worked wonders for me. I had been sick passing blood on both ends. It stopped everything. My only complaints is that it made me feel very weak, and it was a little hard remembering to take it 30 minutes before eating. I highly recommend it.

hard keeping up with 4 times a day, 30 minutes before each meal. makes you very tired. does help with stomach acid, but does not relieve bloating symptoms 100%v

I had the worst trouble with morning sickness during my pregnancy that nothing would work. My doctor prescribed this and after then first dose, I was feeling 100% better. It's most definitely a miracle drug!

AFTER LONG TIME USE I NOTED TIREDNESS AND SLEEPING PROBLEMS. WHICH WENT AWAY AFTER STOPPING THE MEDICATION

use at bedtime to stop gurgling and growing of stomach....seems to be working after 2 weeks of use.would recommend people try it

it was given to my 4 yr old son who is suffering from excessive indigestion and the zantac didnt help and niether did this stuff there was still burning and he always felt sick!

acontinued bouts of nausea & vomiting

My 10 year old son had a bad reaction to it. We had to take him to the hospital. He really sick and had trouble breathing, muscles tightened up and made his face and head turn to one side. The first day of the medication.

I am very sensitive to vicodan, codeine,etc. I took this alongside of vicodan and an antibiotic that made me nauseated. It enabled me to keep my antibiotic down and was very effective. I had no side effects and could function without the worry of vomiting up my antibiotics.
