Reglan before a meal helps me. But I drink a lot of protein shakes and pretty much have one meal a day. It sucks!!!!

They just took me off of that because it gave me a rash on my stomach. I was taking it 3X a day.

I’m sorry. That is the only thing that has helped me. I also take some probiotics. But I don’t know if it helps anything

Reglan helped me, but doctors were concerned after me being on it for over a year and moved me to dissolvable Zofran (8mg up to 3 times per day). It doesn’t work as well, but it helps some.

Reglan is for motility, i was on it for a year before I got facial movements. My Dr took me off it. I got a gastric stimulator to help with my nausea and vomiting.

I take zofran 2-3 times a day and that seems to do me pretty well. I’m still looking for alternatives due to the other side effects though
