Tardive Dyskinesia

Reglan use has been linked to many serious health issues including tardive dyskinesia.

Reglan affects the dopamine receptors, which after extended use, can cause the patient to suffer from unstoppable twitches and spasms.

How Reglan Causes Tardive Dyskinesia  One way that your nerves control your muscle movements is through the transmission of dopamine.  When these dopamine receptors are blocked or altered by medication, it can interfere with the nerves’ control over muscle movements.

How Reglan Causes Tardive Dyskinesia  The main component in Reglan, metoclopramide, is a dopamine receptor antagonist.  This means that it blocks the transmission of this signaling from the nerves to the muscles. If you use Reglan for an extended period of time, it can permanently damage your dopamine receptors.

Symptoms of Tardive Dyskinesia  Chewing or up-and-down jaw movement  Tongue protrusion or wiggling  Lip smacking  Cheek puffing

If you have developed a serious health condition such as tardive dyskinesia as a result of Reglan use, you may be interested in pursuing compensation for your losses.

Although this type of case can be difficult, with an attorney on your side, you may be able to secure the financial support you deserve.
