Did Reglan Cause Your Dyskinesia Tardive?
[Posted on June 04]
An involuntary muscle movement disorder can cause an immense amount of suffering, but for some, perhaps the saddest part about living with an involuntary muscle movement disorder is the fact that the disorder perhaps could have been prevented. Indeed, some of those suffering from an involuntary muscle movement disorder such as dyskinesia tardive may have developed their disorder as a result of taking the prescription drug Reglan for an extended period of time.
Metoclopramide, otherwise known as the prescription drug Reglan has had a controversial history as this drug is now acknowledged to perhaps increase the risk for dyskinesia tardive or tardive dyskinesia as well as other involuntary muscle movement disorders. Those living with tardive dyskinesia have uncontrollable movements of the legs, arms, fingers, lips, eyes, and face, and since these uncontrollable movements are extremely noticeable, those suffering from tardive dyskinesia or similar involuntary muscle movement disorders have an extremely difficult time trying to function normally in everyday social situations. Needless to say, on top of the tremendous daily physical challenges, an involuntary muscle movement disorder also presents a set of difficult mental and emotional challenges which are oftentimes overwhelming for the sufferer. Without a doubt, those suffering from an involuntary muscle movement disorder believed to have been caused by the prescription drug Reglan should not stay quiet. Instead, a qualified attorney should be contacted as it may be possible to win appropriate compensation for all the suffering experienced.
