Droperidol "I was given Inapsine for nausea during delivery by cesarean. While lying on the operating table, I developed an extreme case of RLS, restless arms, actually, since my lower body was completely anesthetized. The only relief was flailing my arms and shaking them vigorously. I passed out shortly thereafter, and that was the end of that. Fifteen years later, I experienced somewhat extreme RLS and immediately recognized it as the same way my arms had felt during delivery (post-Inapsine). The RLS continued for months and was likely due to taking sertraline. When I finally made the connection, I tapered off the sertraline and haven't had an episode since. Perhaps those who have RLS due to Inapsine are more likely to have the same reaction to SSRIs."

"Daughter brought into ED for 2nd time for nausea and abdominal pain. After a bunch of negative tests, they suggested Bentyl and droperidol. Immediately, she became anxious and agitated, restless, and couldn't sit still. Her fibro flared up, and her back started hurting. Big behavior change, called the nurse, and he brought in Benadryl, which did help some. It may have decreased her nausea, but not worth the other effects. I don't recommend this med at all."

"This was hands down one of the best meds I've had. I have had several flares of colitis and had to go into the ER for treatment. This helped with the nausea and pain instantly! Yes, I felt a little groggy, but much better than when I had arrived there! I give it two thumbs up!"

"This almost ended me. I rocked back and forth for 3 days and thought I was dying. I couldn't breathe. Take this stuff off the market, please."

Droperidol "I have chronic severe nausea from 5 neck surgeries plus gastroparesis. I was given this in the ER in 1998, and it's the best nausea medicine you can get, in my opinion!"

"Droperidol was the worst experience of my life medically: It gave me hallucinations; couldn't talk; felt like a seizure; lasted for approx. 4-6 hours. Checked out of the ER AMA after this and laying in urine for 3 hours."
