FAQ

A prescription is required to buy metoclopramide from local pharmacies in the United States. Under our store policy, Reglan can be ordered without a prescription and sent by mail.

A pill organizer may be practical for a short supply, but the tablets should be protected from moisture and light and remain clearly identifiable. Keep the main supply in its original light-resistant container, and do not use an organizer if it cannot keep the tablets dry and protected from light.

Not necessarily. Products containing metoclopramide may use different inactive ingredients, such as fillers, dyes, or binding agents, and the ingredients of the specific supplied tablets are not confirmed in advance. Check the package label or enclosed product information if an excipient or allergen must be avoided.

A different appearance alone does not mean the tablets are incorrect. Compare the package label for metoclopramide, the 10 mg strength, and tablet dosage form, as well as the manufacturer, lot number, expiration date, and tablet imprint when present. Do not take the tablets until any mismatch in ingredient, strength, dosage form, imprint, seal, or physical condition has been clarified.

This product is available as 10 mg oral tablets. No other strength or dosage form is listed for this product.

Reglan contains metoclopramide, a prokinetic antiemetic. Oral metoclopramide tablets are used in adults for diabetic gastroparesis and for gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) when conventional treatment has not provided enough relief.

Reglan 10 mg tablets are taken by mouth, commonly 30 minutes before meals; some regimens also include a bedtime dose. The timing, dose, and duration depend on the condition being treated, kidney function, and other factors, so the prescribed directions should be followed. Treatment is generally kept as short as possible because longer exposure increases the risk of tardive dyskinesia.

Use during pregnancy requires caution. Available human data have not shown a consistent pattern of harmful outcomes, but metoclopramide crosses the placenta and use near delivery may cause movement-related effects or methemoglobinemia in a newborn. Metoclopramide also passes into breast milk, so breastfeeding use should be weighed carefully because adverse effects in an exposed infant are possible.

Description

Introduction

Reglan (Metoclopramide) is a prescription medication frequently used to treat digestive problems.
By promoting the movement of stomach contents into the intestines, metoclopramide helps to lessen GERD symptoms, including heartburn and regurgitation.

It is frequently administered by specific medical procedures, chemotherapy, or surgeries to treat nausea and vomiting.

The condition known as delayed gastric emptying (gastroparesis), in which the stomach takes too long to empty its contents, can be treated with metoclopramide by strengthening the contractions of the stomach and intestines.

Metoclopramide tightens the muscles in the upper digestive tract to facilitate the faster movement of food and stomach contents through the digestive system.

Reglan may not be appropriate for everyone and can have adverse effects. Therefore, it's imperative to use it under a doctor's supervision. Prolonged usage ought to be circumvented as it has the potential to cause severe movement disorders called tardive dyskinesia.

If you are prescribed Reglan or metoclopramide, it is crucial to follow your doctor's instructions, tell them about any other medications you take, and report any odd or persistent adverse effects.

How it Works

Reglan blocks serotonin and dopamine receptors. The medication reduces hiccups, has an antiemetic effect, and regulates how the gastrointestinal tract functions. The digestive system's tone and motor activity are extended, but the stomach's secretion remains unchanged. There are signs that the medication aids in the healing of duodenal and stomach ulcers.

Reglan therapy should not be stopped before your doctor has ordered it, even if your problem seems to be getting better. If you stop taking the drug too soon, it could make things worse.

Until you know how this drug affects you, take caution when using machinery, driving, climbing, or performing other risky jobs. Avoid consuming alcohol. Before administering Reglan to a child, always contact a medic.

After some research, an inconclusive recommendation was made for the use of metoclopramide for infants with reflux. The populations, dosing schedules, and results of the 12 studies that satisfied the review criteria varied significantly. The currently available evidence does not support either significant benefit or harm associated with metoclopramide. The majority of these studies did not report any adverse effects. Dystonic reactions, oculogyric crises, irritability, sleepiness, emesis, and apnea were among the four occurrences that were reported.

When to Take

As an antiemetic, the medication helps with nausea and vomiting brought on by anesthesia, nutrition problems, radiation therapy, medication side effects (such as foxglove, cytostatic drugs, compounds that suppress cell division, antibiotics, etc.), etc. It helps treat vestibular genesis vomiting, which is brought on by motion sickness. The medication is also used in the complex treatment of gastritis, dyskinesia (abrupt loss of movement) of the abdominal cavity, postoperative paresis, the gut, flatulence, and other conditions in gastroenterology practice.

Increased stomach and intestinal tone, faster pyloric and gastric emptying, and decreased hyperacid stasis are associated with positive effects. Evidence exists that the medication is beneficial in treating dyspepsia, or frequent vomiting and nausea, in individuals with severe cardiac conditions (myocardial infarction, heart failure) and vomiting during pregnancy.

Adverse Effects

Generally, Reglan is well tolerated. There may be uncommon instances of extrapyramidal problems, such as jitteriness and disruption in movement coordination with reduced volume. Metoclopramide's antagonistic action on the brain's dopamine receptors plays a significant part in the process underlying these side effects. Caffeine is administered parenterally to eliminate these symptoms. This medicine is given cautiously to children under the age of 14. Tinnitus, sleepiness, and dry mouth are possible side effects of the medication. Reglan is administered after meals to lessen these effects.

Customer questions

Asked by Ashley Morgan, Nashville, United States

I have used Reglan before. Will the package I receive show the Reglan name, or might it have a generic or manufacturer name instead?

Answered by Support team

The exact trade name and manufacturer on the supplied package cannot be guaranteed in advance. If the name differs, verify that the label identifies metoclopramide 10 mg tablets for oral use before taking it.

Asked by Marcus Reed, Dallas, United States

I live in Dallas, where packages can sit outside in hot weather. Can these tablets normally be sent by mail without being damaged?

Answered by Support team

Solid oral tablets can generally travel by mail when they are properly packed and handled. After arrival, check that the package and tablets are intact, then store them at 68°F to 77°F, protected from light in the original light-resistant container; do not use tablets if the package appears compromised.

Asked by Danielle Brooks, Indianapolis, United States

I started metoclopramide for my stomach symptoms and feel sleepy and unusually restless. Which side effects are expected, and which ones need urgent attention?

Answered by Support team
Medical reviewed by John Buducci

Drowsiness, fatigue, dizziness, diarrhea, and restlessness can occur. Contact a clinician promptly for new involuntary movements, muscle spasms, severe agitation, or a rigid body with fever; these can be serious neurologic reactions. Avoid driving or operating machinery while sleepiness, dizziness, or restlessness affects you.
