Common Questions and Answers about Ondansetron generic cost

zofran

Avatar f tn Ondansetron is Zofran hun. Its just the generic name for zofran. Even though theres a lawsuit, id say its more of a money maker. I took it both pregnancies and my babies came out fine. Youve got to look at whether the benefits outweigh the risk with ANY medication. If youre miserable and need to eat for baby, take it. My advice is try to only take it when u really need it, not on a regular basis. Stop as soon as symptoms ease up. Lots of water too.
Avatar f tn Ondansetron is the generic for Zofran. Why would you refuse it? It's safe to take or your Dr wouldn't prescribe it to you. There's other meds out there if you don't want to take it. My Dr gave me Diclegis. It helped take the edge off the nausea.
Avatar m tn There is medication you can get from your doctor. It's call Zofran. There is a generic version that cost a whole lot less. I have taken both and many people on hep c treatment take it. Doctors should give everyone a prescription for throwing up before starting treatment. I knew to ask for Zofran before treatment because I had throw up issues while in cancer chemo. Give your doctor a call and get relief. It works great.

Avatar f tn I went to the er and got ondansetron (generic for zofran) but the doc prescribed it bc I literally kept nothing but one icee a day down. I got a script for 12 and thats it. All I know is they do not prescribe it to one indivodual in large quantities and that bc it can affect and stay in your blood for so long they have to monitor how much an individual gets.
Avatar f tn Talk to your doctor about a medication called zofran (generic is called ondansetron). I'm 14 weeks with my first baby and have had constant nausea and vomiting. I was prescribed this med and it works wonders.
Avatar m tn tenvir from cipla is good and cheap generic, there are also cheaper generics but dont remember the brand
Avatar f tn I was prescribed this by the hospital for hyperemesis from 6 weeks until 17 weeks after being admitted due to dehydration and starvation. I still felt ill after stopping but I was able to cope with it better. Ondansetron is the generic version of Zofran and I asked my consultant the same question and she said no medication can be described as safe in pregnancy as no pregnant women will submit their pregnant bodies to a medical study (understandably!).
7131686 tn?1390054441 Its calld ondansetron n I'm supposed to take it every 6 hours and I went on tuesday.

Avatar f tn If its phenergan (promethizine is the generic) or zofran (ondansetron) you can take with other meds without any harm. But if you're nervous double check with your ob.
1201433 tn?1328997637 Zofran tablets, syrup and injection all contain the active ingredient ondansetron hydrochloride dihydrate, which is a type of medicine called a 5HT3 antagonist. (NB. Ondansetron is also available without a brand name, ie as the generic medicine.) Ondansetron is used to prevent and treat nausea and vomiting that can be caused by chemotherapy or radiotherapy treatment for cancer, or by surgery. Vomiting is controlled by an area of the brain called the vomiting centre.
Avatar f tn Alright the other night I ran out of my ondansetron and i thought I'd be okay if I didn't refill it right away because I'm still on diclectin.. well I was wrong and yesterday morning at work I was super nauseous thankfully didn't get sick but had to just tough it out till I could get my prescription at noon.
Avatar f tn I still felt ill after stopping at 17 weeks but I was able to cope with it better as it had subsided a good bit. Ondansetron is the generic version of Zofran and I asked my consultant the same question as to whether it was safe and I looked at numerous medical journals. Both she and the journals said no medication can be described as safe in pregnancy as no pregnant women will submit their pregnant bodies to a medical study (understandably!).
1632656 tn?1310693271 Can any one please tell me how much the Generic form of regular 20 mg's and Aderral xr 30 is now. I have recently decided to go back on meds with no insurance,, I am in California and I heard it is still quite expensive,, thank you.
Avatar f tn Patent comes off dec 2009 if I recall. As far as cost - if you have insurance once it's generic it usually goes on the cheaper generic copay list if you have that sort of insurance. so for instance if with your insurance you pay $30 for non-generic drugs on the approved list and $10 for generics on the approved list - you'd be paying $20 less/month for your valtrex. Typically it's 30% reduction in price when it goes generic initially for paying out of pocket. drugstore.
Avatar f tn Is anyone out there taking Teva's version of Nexium? I'm to the point now where I can't get the brand. I was astonished to see that this generic version's co-pay through my insurance is so high! $80 for 90 days. I could understand this price for the brand, but for generic? Anyway, I had tried this version as I had to with my last insurance, it and I didn't do as well on it. I tried it for a week. I an wondering if it was just my imagination.
640548 tn?1340553355 I took the generic form of Zofran last time I was pregnant, and it did help. I had HORRIBLY bad nausea, and it gave me some relief. I hope this helps. Sorry to hear you're having a tough time, but my nurse always reminds me with a smile that morning sickness is a good sign. Take care.
Avatar f tn Can anyone give me a ballpark of the cost for the suppressant drugs after a transplant. Just want to get an idea, know no one can give me exacts but any info would help. Thanks.
1801781 tn?1461629469 I am having to switch to the generic version of Lexapro as it is now available. Insurance wants the change and I am OK with it as the cost will be less. My question is has anyone been on it and can they tell a difference??
Avatar n tn the generic in india is absolutely the same as brands, it is just cheap and easy chemicals.....so easy to do.
Avatar f tn I have terrible morning sickness and I was given a prescription for ondansetron 4mg which is the generic version of zofran. I'm scared to take it because of the possible side effects and the warnings I've seen on TV. I don't want to take any risks when it comes to my baby. Any thoughts on this?
1201433 tn?1328997637 Ondansetrone was developed and first marketed by GlaxoSmithKline as Zofran. It is a serotonin 5-HT3 receptor antagonist used mainly as an antiemetic (to treat nausea and vomiting), often following chemotherapy. Its effects are thought to be on both peripheral and central nerves. Ondansetron reduces the activity of the vagus nerve, which deactivates the vomiting center in the medulla oblongata, and also blocks serotonin receptors in the chemoreceptor trigger zone.
572651 tn?1530999357 I was very surprised and pleased when the new rx arrived in the mail - Provigil has now gone generic, and Modafinil (the generic name) was shipped instead of the name brand. The cost? A total of $20 for a 90 day supply. Maybe now that it is available in generic form all of our insurance companies will be less difficult to work with and get approved. We can only hope........
