For Chronic Idiopathic Constipation "I took this med for about 2 weeks for gastroparesis, then started to have psyche side effects. I stopped the drug for a few days, then started up again as it worked so well. Lo and behold, the same thing happened. A few more tries, and this time the side effects outweighed the good. It took me a week to feel better mentally, but I am still very anxious. Works well, but not worth the cons."

For Chronic Idiopathic Constipation "Motegrity does work, but the effect on me is harsh, and I have many side effects. I took 2 mg about six hours ago. It hit within 15 minutes. Since then, I have gone to the bathroom about 15 times. I didn't make it to the toilet a few times. I'm experiencing a racing heart, pounding headache, a jittery/shaky feeling, and intense nausea. I'm dizzy, weak, and achy. I take many other meds for other conditions, and for all I know, they've left my body. There's no way I could deal with this every day. Not sure if I'll try it again, definitely not anytime soon."

For Chronic Idiopathic Constipation "My daughter has autism and has had constipation all her life. She has always been on medication for her autism. Motegrity has her making complete bowel movements, but her behavior has become erratic. She is anxious and is having compulsive behaviors. I'm going to stop Motegrity for a few days and see how she acts. If her behavior improves, I know it's the Motegrity. A shame because it is helping her. I'm only giving her 1 mg."

For Chronic Idiopathic Constipation "I have been on Motegrity for over a year, and it worked great for a while, lately, I have had problems with feeling jittery, anxious, and depressed. Feeling jittery and anxious is the worst. I have gastroparesis and am also on Famotidine, Promethazine, Lansoprazole, and Motilium, so it may be a combination or the Motegrity."
