My mother suffers from osteoarthritis & is successfully being treated with methadone thru a pain mgmt center. Last month, the PM dr ceased antidepressant prescribed by her GP. Almost immediately, she became extremely restless (this is truly an understatement). Back to PM Ctr, where they began to back track, trying to pinpoint the culprit; ceased celebrex (the one "new" medication)& added clonidine to assist with the restlessness (which has not helped). Today, in looking thru her file, questioned why she was taking metoclopramide, also prescribed by GP. They feel now this to be the culprit. Any comments or information would be appreciated.
