I was given this drug in the ER for a migraine and it was the worst day of my life…. It put me into a severe panic attack and I’ve never had a panic attack before…I never want to experience anything like that again….they calmed me down with Ativan iv and that still didn’t work completely… it didn’t wear off completely for 12 hours…
I've gotten it 5 times before, each time was awful. I had to go to the ER again one time, practically begged to not get compazine, they still gave it to me.
I had to go to the ER bc I had the worst migraine due to Covid and they gave me compazine thru the IV. I started to have the worst feeling ever and I was tripping out and they didn’t do anything to help me so I told them to discharge me. They told me to go home and sleep it off. After 3-4 hours being at home trying to relax and it still didn’t go away, so I went back to tell them all my side effects and they just looked at me like I was crazy. They told me there’s nothing they could do bc I told them to discharge me. It took more than 10 hours for the side effects to go away but it felt like forever. Worst experience of my life. I literally felt like I wanted to die.
Similar to many of you, I was given this drug to treat a protracted migraine at the ER (as part of a cocktail including Toradol and Benadryl). Within seconds I started shaking uncontrollably and my anxiety peaked. I felt like I was losing my mind and literally going crazy. It was the most traumatic, miserable experience of my life. Moreover, 6 weeks later I still feel terrible. I've developed chest pain and shortness of breath that is only relieved w/ something like Xanax or Temazapam. Curious if other people have this type of prolonged lingering reaction to Compazine!
I took it and had the exact same experience bro , hospital said I didn’t take a lethal dose so they think it was Xanax withdrawal , I been sober for a week now
That would be me, 8 months later and I am not the same. Although I have not tried medication from any doctors (I refuse to after what I was given in the ER) I have tried Anxiety Free Tea from a company called cerebral I believe *that helped a lot the first few months as the symptoms were awful... I still have shortness of breath ,chest pain.. In the evening I a sensitive to sounds when trying to sleep, I use to sleep through earthquakes but now If someone drops something or my kids are playing video games it literally jump scares me out of bed ...
Yes! Bad experience! I have a history of severe depression and contradicications with Marijuana and ketamine. I also struggled with Propofol and it takes me a while to recover bodily function after being treated with it for surgery.
Yes, very similar experience with this drug. I was also given a cocktail when in the hospital, and I felt like I was going to die. Heart rate went from 60 to 170 in less than a minute followed by full body convulsions. It was absolutely terrifying. That was 6 weeks ago and I’m still not normal.
Had a horrible reaction to this medication. Agitation, dissociation, anxiety and borderline panic attack. The feeling of discomfort could not be contested. I received a dose for nauseau at about 2.5mg and suffered for hours. Never again.
How does this drug get out of our system? What can we do? I was given this almost a month ago and I'm always having panic attacks. . never had one before in my life and now I can't sleep and always feeling scared . Horrible
@@DontTouchMyPints It's pretty bad the first month ,well for me is was horrible, there's a company called Cerebral teas. I was never a tea drinker, still not lol but when it's bad for me a make a cup of their Anxiety Free Tea .. It really helped calm my nerves to close my eyes and sleep....
@Kylie_s197 For me no, for a few people I know yes they drank water and ate almonds and felt good after a few days Unfortunately I am not the same person anymore
Been vomiting for 5 days got taken into emergency a.e & got these to take home hopefully they work as vomited twice since been on these in less than 24hs
Given this today...and I feel like I'm dying. This should be illegal. How can they have NOTHING to reverse it. I had a ONE time dose. And the er really tried telling me "it's just anxiety " no I'm shaking 5 hrs after 1 dose. Skin crawl, heart race, etc
Hi stop taking after 6 days due to bad side affects but it’s already 3 days but I had several panic attacks when I go out My doctor keep saying it was safe to take it now other doctor prescribed me diazepam to help with attacks and chest pain I want to be same as before could you please share some experience to help me get out this bubble I retreat taking this medication
Horrible for me, & I guess I'm pretty lucky in comparison to some of the other people commenting here! I was given this med for dizziness since Meclizine failed. The 1st night...I had the most HORRIFIC, VIOLENT, & GROTESTEQUE nightmare ever, & I've seen a TON of "things" in my dreams~okay! I waited 5 days before I dared take anymore, especially because just the one night dose that I'd taken (RX is for 3x's a day)...caused me to sleep so hardcore (11hrs), & I had the worst headache for a few days! The 2nd time I took it, I only took a 1/2 pill=5mg. All that same crap happened again! & Screw these nightmares for real! Plus as much as I LOVE sleep...it's not a restful sleep by any means! It's like being heavily way too drugged, & then feeling like a damn zombie for at least a whole nother couple of days type of sleep. I would hope that no one else, but especially schizophrenics would not get the horrific nightmares as a side effect too because many times, they go undermined, or not believed. Plus they already suffer enough with trying to figure out what's real, & what's not while awake. I wouldn't wish them to have more trauma brought into, or added to their sleep.
i was giving large doses of compazine, benadryl and a 3rd drug, and my reaction was so bad i genuinely thought i was having a heart attack and thought i was gonna die
Is it possible Compazine would cause me to have the exact same meltdown /,wig out ,feel like I was on fire / felt like I couldn't control my muscle movements/ran out of the ER in a panic with my IV still in ) that Reglan made me have ? Reglan is listed as a drug allergy for me In my chart with restlessness listed as the adverse reaction. It is far more than restlessness but that's what someone entered in the system years ago . So was at ER for severe headache later diagnosed as bacterial sinusitis. ER Nurse said they're giving you Reglan with Benadryl. The Benadryl will counteract the restlessness.. I said Reglan ? And he said yes but the Benadryl will counteract the restlessness. Within minutes I was completely wigging out and begging the nurse that just came on shift for someone to counteract the Reglan . Resident came in and said you werent given Reglan. I told them the RN told me as he was putting it in that they're giving me Reglan with Benadryl. They ignored My pleading for something to counteract the Reglan I took off. They stopped me to take my IV out and they let me drive home basically in a state of psychosis . They are now claiming they gave me compazine with Benadryl for nausea. They went back in and added later on after I left that patient complained of being nauseas during her ER stay. I never told them I was nauseas and I was already on Toradol and zofran .according to their notes they gave me zofran with Toradol and less than an hour later Compazine with Benadryl for nausea and I never said I was nauseas. I know they gave me Reglan ,but is it possible Compazine caused me to have the same exact adverse reaction Reglan did the only other time they put me on IV Reglan ? Doesn't seem like Compazine would cause this type of reaction ER is denying they gave me Reglan and they will not upload the "medications you were given at the ER" part of my AVS on my online chart . They claim it's because I "eloped " but everything else is on the AVS including their inaccurate diagnosis of "facial pain "
I have a severe systemic reaction from compazine. All my muscles twisted and tensed, my jaw clenched, I thought I was choking and my tongue was out of control. I couldn’t talk. They said it was hysteria. I suffered like that for two or three days and then they decided to discharge me. By the end of it, my potassium levels dropped so far down that I was close to having a heart attack. That hospital discharged me I went home and then the next day I went to a different hospital and the RN there knew exactly what was going on right away. When I mentioned they had given me Compazine, and nothing else in the hospital. I was having an allergic reaction to Compazine. It was very traumatic and horrible experience. Especially being that the nurses did not believe my symptoms, even though I was clearly contorted from my muscles spazzing out so bad. Look up a video of severe dystonic reaction. That is what Compazine did to me. so your muscles have reactions from Compazine. Not only that, but it affected my ability to talk as well as do not leave me able to sleep at all for a week
@@escobar-palmafamily5911 it's been way over a month & I'm still dealing with side effects! I can't talk right, and my jaw is constantly tight. My ears ring from time to time, and I'm not as strong as I used to be. And, my vision gets blurry often! All because of one dose of Compazine! I just want to be normal again.. Thank you for asking how I am!!
How are you feeling now? I just want some hope I will get better... The ER gave me a cocktail of this for a headache and I wake up every night with heart palpitations, I always feel cold/hot on my chest and walk around almost feeling like I'm about to cry. My Dr said the drug is out of my system but I'm not the same ... I want it out and to be normal ....
@@nicolebosquez1 girl it's been over 3 months since my very rare & adverse reaction, and I'm STILL not better! I had been taking a muscle relaxer, magnesium, and naproxen, and it's doing little to nothing. I'll be seeing another doctor soon, and I'm looking to get different medicine, or higher dosage.. I'm also going to need braces because this whole reaction really screwed up my jaw! Now please remember, my reaction is rare, so chances are you're not going through what I am. I wouldn't wish what I'm going through to anyone! I really hope you feel better fast! Wishing you all the best!
I don't understand why hospitals give this crap out. I have a RN friend who had very bad side effects but she told me it's a chemical imbalance in our body from it and to try to as naturally as possible to cope and let it run its course.. She drank tea and ate almonds and drank water. I'm so sick of drinking water and I've been eating right and trying to workout but I still feel that anxious panicky feeling..My Dr is an idiot , she said Oh it's long gone out out your system and your just stressing thinking it's there ... Prior to this I was not stressed, depressed,anxious or anything in between,I'm usually a happy funny mother who recently moved to my dream home and the one trip to the ER now has me like a complete weirdo.... I hope you get well soon and back to your normal self as well... I feel a bit better knowing I'm not alone that there are people dealing with this crap also......

Wow. That sucks it's the only thing that helps my migraines.l and calms me down.

You sure everyone in these comments doesn’t live together ?
Bro I was thinking the same thing haha is this medication so bad!
@@kagescar NO, my wife gets Vertigo and this is the quickest way to relieve it
@@kagescar It is great for severe nausea, severe migraine, and anxiety. It makes you pretty sleepy.

Great content! In the future, would a video on clozapine be a possibility? Terrific content as always.

Did it help? Trying today.
