For Hiccups "Not only did Thorazine not get rid of hiccups, it turned my husband into a zombie! He pulled out his Nguyen tube and catheter. It’s a mind-altering drug they give to mentally ill patients and prisoners to subdue them. Just not worth the additional risk."

For Light Sedation "This will put you out of the game. You'll be conscious and fighting it, see and know you're acting in this ridiculous manner, but unable to do anything about it. Don't go driving around or flying down some stairs until you see how it affects you."

For Hiccups "My daughter had the hiccups for almost 3 weeks. Tried all the various meds that did nothing but make her tired and sick. Acupuncture stopped them immediately. Please stop listening to the doctors, they want the money. She is hiccup-free for almost 24 hours!"

For Light Sedation "Am on 400 mgs of Thorazine for insomnia. Stuff does nothing at all, and in fact I feel more awake after taking it. Sure wish it knocked me out like it does to pretty much everyone else."

For Hiccups "My husband has small B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. He has finished his chemo, but his antibody treatment will go on for two more years, according to the oncology hematologist. After his last two treatments, which are now two months apart, he had horrible hiccups. We mentioned it to the oncology hematologist yesterday at his treatment. She ordered a Thorazine 25 mg tablet. We waited for the hiccups today and they showed up. He took the Thorazine tablet and within 45 minutes, the hiccups were gone!"
