Use of Reglan (Metoclopramide) May Lead to Tardive Dyskinesia and Other Severe Side Effects
According to a medication guide published by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), serious side effects of Reglan (metoclopramide) include many types of movement disorders, such as tardive dyskinesia (TD), depression and thoughts of suicide, Parkinsonism and neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS).
The following types of uncontrollable movement are signs that you may have developed TD:
- Lip smacking or sticking out your tongue
- Frowning
- Shifting your feet or legs
- Shaking
If you are experiencing the above symptoms and are currently receiving Reglan treatment, speak with your doctor immediately. Then call us. You may have recourse against the pharmaceutical manufacturing company.
