Can you take zofran and phenergan together

Common Questions and Answers about Can you take zofran and phenergan together

zofran

I would call again (not billing they haven't the slightest) and tell them you can not take phenergan (umm if you had been to Mayo or CC you couldnt and they are pretty knowledgeable so it's not really a lie is it?) and that at one time you had been given it on a local ambulance and need to know if they carry alternatives and what since you have a list of meds you are supposed to avoid that won't fit on a medic alert tag....

Somehow we need to get the regulars on here to look at the HealthPages more so you all can tell others what is on there. Most of you know that on the Gemzar I was in the hospital 8 times between Christmas and the middle of February. If it had not been for you guys and my pharmacist suggesting Aloxi I would not have known about this MARVELOUS drug. I had to ask my chemo nurses to give me that instead of the zofran. Even than they said that zofran generally worked better.

I take zofran and phenergan ... Not together but I have to switch because they each have undesirable side effects like severe constipation with zofran and horrible tired drowsiness from phenergan....seabands , lemons, crackers, sprite, ginger ale never did anything for me.... Sometimes carbonated drinks made it worse.... I find if I eat what I crave , and eat slowly not overrating usually I'm okay.

If your upset stomach is caused by gastroesophageal reflux, you can alleviate your symptoms by taking an over-the-counter (OTC) medication and doing whatever else your doctor has advised you to do when your reflux flares up. Of course, there are other possible causes of nausea and vomiting, too.

zofran (ondansetron) blocks the actions of chemicals in the body that can trigger nausea and vomiting. zofran is used to prevent nausea and vomiting that may be caused by surgery or by medicine to treat cancer (chemotherapy or radiation). zofran may be used for purposes not listed in this medication guide. What is phenergan? phenergan is an antihistamine. It blocks the effects of the naturally occurring chemical histamine in your body.

Other than unisom you can take benadryl or any of a number of antinausea meds you can take 1/2 of one and see if it helps you sleep and if it doesn't you can try 1 as long as your dr ok's it. talk to your dr about phenergan for nausea. You can also get phenergan suppositories if you can't physically keep the med down. B6 never worked for me, if you can't take your vitamins try flinstones gummies, they're better than nothing.

A good friend of mine suffered severe vomiting for upwards of the first 10 weeks of her pregnancy, she went to the doctors and told her her blood sugar was low and she carried jelly beans or other sweets on her for if she became nauseous. Trying things like dry biscuits or ginger can be a natural anti-nausea remedy. Otherwise if you see your doctor they can prescribe anti nausea tablets specifucally designed for pregnancy, but make sure you keep drinking water so you dont become dehydrated.

Usually it just doesn't bother me. Having a port thats visible..you try to hide it but sometimes you can't. Most of the time I forget about it, but my mom pointed out today that people stare at it... I don't even notice. Needles...whatever don't care about those either. I feel like **** and vomit all the time, but at my house thats normal. I guess our family has adjusted to a new life style. and I don't want sympathy, I just want to be as normal as possible.

Good, I'm glad to hear you got that nausea under control, that can be a very terrible thing! Hopefully you can get off all the meds together soon which I'm sure you will be able to do. Have a wonderful and happy and healthy 9 months!!!!

Remember that phenergan is available as a suppository if you can’t hold it down, and zofran can be obtained in solutab form, so it melts in your mouth, not in your hand :o). Don’t wait to speak with your doctor about this… don’t suffer any longer than necessary. This can often be resolved, and no point in dragging it out.

OK this is what my doc has me on medication wise for nausea and vomiting, zofran, phenergan, and reglan, I take 4 mg of zofran, up to 50 mg of phenergan, and 25 mg of reglan . I have been told that I can take all 3 at once but I am uncertain of the risk to my baby and myself. All of this is to control my nausea and vomiting, has anyone else been given this much and told to take it at one time? Just curious.

If you're having lots of troubles eating, talk to your doctor about getting a script for phenergan and/or zofran. It doesn't always work for everyone, but it did for me and is the only thing that kept me out of the hospital on IV fluids. It's difficult because it progresses differently in everyone and some might not have it as bad as others. Eat what you can, and try to keep yourself as hydrated as possible. You could PM me if you want to know anything else.

Omeprazole is a good drug to combat this. Along with it you can try over the counter antacids. However I would recommend you see a doctor and take medication under a doctor’s supervision. Avoid heavy meals and take frequent small ones. Avoid too much of caffeine, tea, fried food and drinks both alcoholic and non alcoholic fuzzy ones. Avoid heavy exercises within 4 hours of a heavy meal. Raise the head end of the bed by pillows to 30 degrees. Go to bed at least 2 hours after food.

Good Morning Tramadol Warriors! Welcome and we're so very happy you found us. Please make yourself at home in Part 31 ...

I've not tried the sea bands yet but will get some today. I can't take the phenergan prescribed for me during the day b/c I have a 4 year old ds to take care of. I'm hoping I only have about 4 more weeks of this, but I've heard with twins that it can last the whole time. I am so miserable, too. Let me know if you find something that works!

Carry around a couple of snacks like yogurt/crackers/granola bars or anything that can be handy and something that you can snack on so at least you can have something in your stomach with the medications. On days when I don't eat enough or don't eat properly, thats when my ill side effect start in. Congratulation on the new birth of that darling baby!! Think of him, that will always make you feel better.

One thing I've found helpful (I'm also an anxious person) is to think about being on a train where there's someone else driving (your body) and since you can't control it, you may as well take a deep breath, look out the window, and think positively about all the wonderful possibilites. Good luck!

But as yet I only had one or two episodes of butt fire lol baby wipes worked. I have tries phenagrin and zofran for nausea they both only sorta work now I can't take one because it puts me to sleep and i have to work etc, and the zofran is only sometimes useful I think It's because It's the dizziness that makes me nauseous and I haven't found anything to stop the dizzy. Pill boxes I have a bunch and its only a mess I understand.

Texas - think of it all positively...when you DO get rid of the naseau, you'll have lost so much weight you can positively PIG OUT on all of your favorite ice creams and deserts and treats! I know when I first started treatment it was HORRIBLE but...the one thing that made me a bit better was ice cream so I tried to convince myself how lucky I was to have the nauseau. (Notice I said "tried" LOL). I hope it goes away soon.

Try to cut back as much as you can and only take them when absolutely necessary. You are being honest with your OB and that is great. It is good that she knows what is going on. But please, do try to cut back on how many pills you are taking. What kind of pain pills are you taking exactly?

Day 2.5 will be much of the same, you will probably not sleep very well but if you take the sleeping aids you should be able to get about 4 hours of sleep....Day 3.5 for some is the worst day but for other is a turning point day.....For me it was different every time. This particular last detox I actually felt a little better on 3.5.....Day 4.5 is kind of a hump day.....You still feel crappy but it is better....

I will keep you in my prayers and send all the positive vibes I can to you ..I wish you all the best because you deserve it .

When you get your new dose, I can help you with curving...[that means not taking the meds all at one...you spread it over hours, which allows your body to maintain a nice level of cortisol .. without peaks and valleys] Doctors don't take the time to tell you about such things; I've discovered them through my own research. Whatever you decide, I'm happy to be your friend and help you the best I can. By the way, I'm in a pickle too!! I CAN'T FIND MY HC!! {hydrocortisone}....

Which is problematic if you need a definitive diagnosis in order to retire or to receive social security disability (the $ they take out of your checks when you work but you must convince them that you have a definitive diagnosis in order to receive this money to live on if you're too ill to work. Although, judging by your age that's not yet a problem I don't think.

There is no painless way to get off these. There are things you can do to help ease the wd's. You can get off these and start to really live again. We are here to help and know what you are going thru.

LOL I thought I was going nuts! When you posted you were on week 52, I thought how can I be on week 20? She must be taking her shot twice a week! I was sort of keeping track of my shots by your shots . I guess I won't do that anymore.

I have mild autonomic dysfunction (Hyperadrenergic Sensitivity/Inappropriate Sinus Tachycardia) associated with my CPVT (Catecholaminergic Polymorphic Ventricular Tachycardia). I can't take Midodrine or Florinef due to my arrhythmia, but my symptoms are somewhat well controlled with Sectral.

I also have a port so I can give iv. fluids, iv. zofran, and iv. phenergan at home myself. Home health comes once a week to change my needle in my chest. Its just hard and its starting to get to me. Iv. fluids and prenatals are my babies life line. I was on birth control, but still got pregnant. I knew I was to sick to try to have more kids, but it happened and here I am. This pregnancy is killing me, its just so hard on me.

Excellent advice as usual. I'm going to research vistaril on the net & ask my Dr. about it. I grant you, I'll take anything and (almost)everything i can to "forget my troubles, c'mon, get happy", but there are times when i just need something to calm my damn stomach down! Kip, hope you are feeling better -- my "bug" bothered me off'n'on for a damn week!

Bullshit, I got this virus, and I can get rid of it, as can you!!! All of us are in this together, and you are not alone. That is what helped me so much, knowing that I was not alone.. Sitting at home feeling like ****, and trying to tell family memebers how you feel, just does not work.. The only ones that really can relate, are those who have experienced the effects of the meds.. The members here, are the best!!
