Abstract
Metoclopramide (Reglan, Baxter Healthcare, Deerfield, Illinois) is a substituted benzamide derivative with therapeutic utility as a stimulant of upper gastrointestinal motility. Metoclopramide is prescribed widely for diabetic gastric stasis and nausea. Although many of metoclopramide's adverse effects are appreciated by both prescribing physicians and patients, depression can occur, sometimes with devastating results. We describe a case of suicide which was causally related to metoclopramide.
