I have been prescribed the above on a dose of 10ml x 3 daily, to replace the cyclizine I was previously taking.
I had been taking the other for the last 6 weeks? or so, and I had respite of a couple of weeks, but had to up it to 2-3 daily for it to help and the side effects of tiredness were crippling. This was prescribed with much reluctance by a duty Dr, and although my GP was fine with this, he had been trying not to prescribe anything at all!
My GP said that now I am further on into the pregnancy other drugs can now be taken, and that So Metoclopramide is now recommended and is safe to take in pg. Done a bit of research before I take it, and it appears to be safe to take at any stage of pregnancy.
Just wondering if anyone has taken it, and whether there might be any side effects I should look out for ie drowsiness etc? GP said to start on one, go up to 3 if I find i need to.
