The Reglan litigation attorneys working with Class Action.org are available to review claims from Reglan (metoclopramide) users who have developed tardive dyskinesia, a disorder which causes involuntary movements, particularly of the lower face. Tardive dyskinesia is a rarely reversible neurological condition which has been linked to chronic uses of metoclopramide, and patients who have developed this Reglan side effect may have legal recourse. If you or a loved one has developed tardive dyskinesia after taking Reglan or the generic metoclopramide, visit http://www.classaction.org/reglan.html and complete the free case evaluation form to find out if you can recover compensation for medical bills and other damages resulting from your
Reglan side effects.
In February 2009, the FDA placed a black box warning on Reglan and other metoclopramide-containing drugs, which are used to treat gastrointestinal disorders. The
Reglan black box warning was added to highlight the risk of tardive dyskinesia with long-term or high-dose use of metoclopramide, even after the drugs have been stopped. Because the development of tardive dyskinesia is directly related to the number of doses and length of treatment, those at greatest risk for Reglan tardive dyskinesia include those who have been taking the drug for a long time, as well as the elderly.
A serious Reglan side effect, tardive dyskinesia is neurological syndrome which is characterized by repetitive and involuntary movements. Symptoms of tardive dyskinesia may include the following: lip smacking; rapid eye blinking; grimacing; tongue protrusion; involuntary finger movements; puckering; and pursing. Rapid movements of the legs, arms and trunk may also develop. Unfortunately, there is no standard treatment for this condition, though symptoms of
Reglan tardive dyskinesia may lessen or resolve after metoclopramide treatment is stopped.
If you or a loved one has developed tardive dyskinesia after taking Reglan, you may have legal recourse.
