Reglan, the anti-nausea med?  I just want to mention that this drug has a tendency to cause akathisia.  I was given one dose in the hospital a few months ago due to migraine and nausea, the restlessness started almost instantaneously.  It took 3 doses of benadryl to get it to stop.  Tardive dyskinesia is a possible side effect of taking it daily.

 

It was also given to me a few times years ago while in the hospital due to a botched gallbladder surgery.  When I asked my doctor about nausea meds, he gave me zofran and phenergan, but refused to give me reglan.  He said many doctors won't prescribe that anymore due to the risk of side effects.  Considering many people suffer from akathisia and other movement disorders during benzo withdrawal, this is not a drug I would ever consider taking.  (I even told them not to give it to me when I went to the hospital for the headache in February, but they had already injected it in with the pain meds, and I would have had to wait at least another hour for them to remix it with something else.  Considering the reaction I had, I now have it listed as an allergy).
