hi,
welcome to health care magic
Although you didn't specify your thoughts but fludac is a good antidepressant and very effective for obsessive compulsive disorder in which persons are in stress because of excessive, unwanted thoughts. chances are very high that you will get good benefit from this medicine, even if you don't have clear obsessive compulsive disorder. Fludac is an easily tolerable medicine and most patients take it without troublesome side effects. Probably you had dystonic reactions(rigidity of limbs, and slowing of movements) with reglan. This reaction is common with reglan, not with fludac. so rest assured and start fludac. Keep in mind that a good effect from fludac may take 6-8 weeks to start, so donot stop it earlier or without consultation with your doctor.
best of luck
