In 2004 when I was had nausea/vomiting while I was pregnant with my son, I was prescribed Reglan. He is now diagnosed with ADHD, ODD (Oppositional Defiant Disorder), and we are having him screened for Asperger’s. I wish I would’ve never taken it if it couldn’t prevented my son from having these problems, this just breaks my heart.

My eldest son Sean, has been diagnosed with Autism. When I attempted to breastfeed him, I was prescribed Reglan (Maxalon) to increase my milk supply. I noticed his breathing was a bit funny when I was on it so I stopped taking it and took him to hospital. They kept him in overnight for monitoring and said he was fine. I am frightened that this drug is the culprit.
The thing that worries me now is the fact that I took this same drug again to attempt to increase my milk supply with my newborn, Liam who is currently 7 weeks of age. He isn’t showing any signs of regressing as of yet, but I am still scared!

My daughter was five weeks early. At two months she choked and stopped breathing. I performed CPR and she was transported to the hospital in an ambulance. After a bunch of tests she was found to have GERD. She was on Reglan until about 14 months. She is five now and possibly ADHD. We have our first evaluation appointment in a week. I am reading as much as I can about it because I am not rushing into anything. But, after reading a lot of info.. I am wondering if Reglan is linked to this.

My son was born in 2004.. He took reglan for months for a Gastro disorder he was diagnosed with ADHD/ADD at age 4.. Sensory Processing disorder age 5… saw a speech therapist for a year and is on an IEP for poor control of small motor skills. He has a need to chew on his shirts… they say this is from High Anxiety… my pregnancy was normal. Wanting information to know if this is caused by Reglan? Is there a connection? I have wanted an answer for so long.

I had severe hyperemesis when pregnant and was given Reglan through a pump 24/7 for most of my pregnancy. My son is ADHD and I have what I thought was restless leg syndrome.

I have an 8 year old son who has recently been diagnosed with ADHD. At 2 months old he was diagnosed with tracheomalacia and GERD and was prescribed Reglan, Tagamet and Zantac. He took these meds for 2 years. After reading all the comments on this page, I am wondering if Reglan may have contributed if not caused his ADHD.

OMG i am in shock, I am currently filling in forms for my sons referral to Phsyio and OT one of the questions was medication during the pregnancy. After finding the info out I thought I would google it alongside Autism as my son is currently being assessed. Does anyone know of relevant studies to support this?

I was on Reglan during both of my pregnancies to treat hyperemesis. My eldest son (5 y.o.) was recently diagnosed with ADHD.
I haven’t had much luck getting any further information on Reglan and research done on long-term effects.
And in one article I found that although they were discontinuing the use on children and “black boxing” it that it’s still claimed to be “safe” for pregnant women to take for extreme nausea/vomiting.
This is insane. If anyone has further information on this can they please post on th reply here?! Thank you.
