Hi. I was supposd to have my surgery yesterday monday the 19th. I was
given a medication called Reglan and had a bad reaction to it. It made me
very restless and aggitated. I felt completely out of control. I told them I
wasn't able to go through with the surgery. Has anyone else had a similar
experience from this? Please e-mail me at [email protected]
"Motor restlessness (akathisia) may consist of feelings of anxiety, agitation, jitteriness and insomnia, as well as inability to sit still, pacing foot tapping. These symptoms may disappear spontaneously or respond to a reduction in dosage. "
Hi I am Debbie from Ohio, waiting for my surgery. I am also an ER nurse and know that what you experienced was a side effect of Reglan. With a little time it would have passed. Sometimes we give Benadryl for to help this go away. The little burb above came from www.rxlist.com. It is the website I use to look up meds. I hate you had to postpone your surgery. Good luck next time.
