Alternative Treatments for Nausea
In many situations where traditional nausea treatments fail to adequately prevent a patient from vomiting with uncomfortable regularity, people sometimes turn to the anti-heartburn drug Reglan as an alternative form of treatment. Unfortunately, Reglan users risk developing a number of devastating side effects, and these dangers should be taken very seriously.
Patients who have used Reglan for any kind of treatment for extended periods of time are vulnerable to the development of incurable neuromuscular disorders such as tardive dyskinesia, tardive dystonia, cervical dystonia, and neuroleptic malignant syndrome. Although the drug can be effective at treating severe nausea, it is important to seek other means of relief to protect yourself from these life-altering medical conditions.
If you have been diagnosed with a neuromuscular disorder and you took Reglan, the two may be related. To learn more, contact a Reglan lawsuit lawyer with Williams Kherkher today by calling 800-761-3187.
Alternatives to Reglan
Various treatments for nausea exist on the market, including the following:
- Dimenhydrinate
- Meclozine
- Ondansetron
- Pyridoxine
- Medical marijuana (where permitted)
Any of these options will prevent you from exposure to permanent nerve damage that is known to be associated with prolonged use of Reglan.
