  • INDICATIONS

    Reglan is used for short term treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) in certain patients who do not respond to other therapy. It is used to treat symptoms of a certain digestive problem in diabetic patients (diabetic gastroparesis). Reglan is a gastrointestinal stimulant and antinauseant. It works by increasing the movement of the stomach and intestines to help move food and acid out of the stomach more quickly. It also works in certain areas in the brain to decrease nausea.

    • Take Reglan by mouth 30 minutes before meals unless directed otherwise by your doctor.
    • It may take several days to weeks for Reglan to work. Do not stop taking Reglan without checking with your doctor.

    • if you are taking any prescription or nonprescription medicine, herbal preparation, or dietary supplement

    Some medicines may interact with Reglan. Tell your health care provider if you are taking any other medicines, especially any of the following:

    Important safety information:

    • Reglan may cause drowsiness or dizziness. These effects may be worse if you take it with alcohol or certain medicines. Use Reglan with caution. Do not drive or perform other possibly unsafe tasks until you know how you react to it.
    • Do not drink alcohol or use medicines that may cause drowsiness (eg, sleep aids, muscle relaxers) while you are using Reglan without first checking with your doctor; it may add to their effects. Ask your pharmacist if you have questions about which medicines may cause drowsiness.
    • Do not take more than the recommended dose or use Reglan for longer than 12 weeks without checking with your doctor.
    • Diabetes patients - Reglan may affect your blood sugar. Check blood sugar levels closely. Ask your doctor before you change the dose of your diabetes medicine.
    • Tell your doctor or dentist that you take Reglan before you receive any medical or dental care, emergency care, or surgery.

    • Some patients who take Reglan may develop muscle movements that they cannot control. This is more likely to happen in elderly patients, especially women. The chance that this will happen or that it will become permanent is greater in those who take Reglan in higher doses or for a long time. Muscle problems may also occur after short-term treatment with low doses. Tell your doctor at once if you have muscle problems with your arms; legs; or your tongue, face, mouth, or jaw (eg, tongue sticking out, puffing of cheeks, mouth puckering, chewing movements) while taking Reglan.
    • Patients who take Reglan may be at increased risk for new or worsening mental or mood changes (eg, depression) or suicidal thoughts or actions. Watch patients who take Reglan closely. Contact the doctor at once if new, worsened, or sudden symptoms such as depressed mood or any unusual change in mood or behavior occur. Contact the doctor right away if any signs of suicidal thoughts or actions occur.
    • Reglan may increase the amount of a certain hormone (prolactin) in your blood. Symptoms may include enlarged breasts, missed menstrual period, decreased sexual ability, or nipple discharge. Contact your doctor right away if you experience any of these symptoms.
    • Lab tests, including liver and kidney function tests, may be performed while you use Reglan. These tests may be used to monitor your condition or check for side effects. Be sure to keep all doctor and lab appointments.
    • Use Reglan with caution in the elderly; they may be more sensitive to its effects, especially drowsiness, confusion, and uncontrolled muscle movements, including tardive dyskinesia.
    • Reglan should be used with extreme caution in children; safety and effectiveness in children have not been confirmed. The risk of developing uncontrolled muscle movements may be greater in children.
    • Pregnancy and breast-feeding: If you become pregnant, contact your doctor. You will need to discuss the benefits and risks of using Reglan while you are pregnant. Reglan is found in breast milk. If you are or will be breast-feeding while you use Reglan, check with your doctor. Discuss any possible risks to your baby.
