Doctors typically prescribe Reglan or its generic equivalent Metoclopramide to treat, among other conditions, acid reflux. At least two studies have linked Reglan to Tardive Dyskinesia, a permanent neurological disorder that is characterized by involuntary movements of the face, tongue and mouth.

The FDA has issued a “Black Box Warning on Metoclopramide”, but as of February 2009 the drug is still on the market, and doctors have been told to recommend it only for short term use.

Other studies have associated Reglan and Metoclopramide with Neuroleptic Malignant Syndrome (NMS), a dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system, affecting heart rate, blood pressure, digestion, and body temperature. NMS Symptoms can include:

Fevers of (101º-108º F)
Bouts of sweating and increased blood pressure
Irregular heart rate
Rigid muscles
Coma or unconsciousness

If you think you or a loved one has been adversely affected by Relgan or Metoclopramide, call (610) 370-6697 for a free consultation.
