1468090 tn?1289093410 zofran is usually used to control nausea in cancer patients or for surgery. with pain meds, they usually give promethazine, which is what i take. so in answer to your question, no. i have not taken zofran to the best of my knoweldge.
Avatar f tn I took zofran and didn't feel any side effects from it, but I was only taking it on an as-needed basis. It's hard to tell if those symptoms are side effects or just pregnancy lol I think it may just he normal but I'd call and ask my doctor and he/she might recommend something for it to help you out.
Avatar f tn Which medicine are you on? I had zofran.
Avatar f tn Hello, I am actually taking that medication which stronger than Zofran because I was taking Zofran but they really were not holdingup my sickness. Make sure that you eat a snack or a meal when you take it so it doesn't upset your stomach. It's ok if you feel a little drowsiness because is normal with that medication.
Avatar f tn Everything else Ive tried isnt helping and its so terrible! I barely get through work and if it gets any worse Im not going to be able to work I really dont want that!
Avatar f tn phenergan tends to cause drowsiness and cand drop your blood pressure.Zofran is expensive, around 75.00 for a rx. not sure how many pills, but not many. Good luck...
Avatar f tn Does anyone else have no nausea but puke a lot, the last two day I have not keep nothing down even when I swallow my spit TMI lol I puke that back up, also think I'm dehydrated I'm 8wks 4dys think I'm gonna go get IV fluids had to have it done at 5wks but the Nausea and Vomiting was so bad I was so dehydrated they couldn't start a IV till they hot packed my arms.
Avatar f tn 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.
Avatar f tn It worked really well for me. It can cause drowsiness so I always took it at night. Also Zofran is something else you may try. It caused me severe constipation so I didn't take it. There is also a law suit here in US against it for birth defects so just check with your doctor. Also peppermint candies and eating multiple small meals a day I heard helps some women. It didn't help me at all but worth a shot. Hope you feel better.
427265 tn?1444076436 For nausea, I found that both phenergan suppositories and pills and the sublingual 8mg zofran were more helpful. I'll say one thing for hydroxine though. In doses of 50mg and above, it does have quite a calming effect (it is also used as a tranquilizer I believe, or has been in the past - phenergan has also been used in the past for its antihistamine and tranq qualities as well as for its ability to help with nausea).
Avatar f tn I have been having drowsiness since past 4 months, sometimes with and without nausea. I have got my MRI of the brain, certain blood tests which were normal. one of the doctors diagnosed is as muscle spasm but i am so confused whats going on. please help me! Thanks!
Avatar f tn I used Zofran and compazine in the past (not on tx) Zofran If it's okay for him to take had no sides and worked the best for me, i've heard others say the same thing.
1654058 tn?1407159066 ve taken it for other stuff and slept like a baby! With that said use the phengran at night and ask for Zofran during the day. Zofran works just like phengran without the drowsiness and is used mostly with pregnant women since it does not have the side effects.
Avatar m tn sciatic nerve damage. The Gabapentin works great, aside from the fact that I get brain fog and drowsiness. This drug separates me from pain, however, makes me a zombie! Does anyone know of a drug or supplement that I can take with the Gabapentin to combat the somnolence?
Avatar n tn Despite being very happy with the medication overall, I continue to suffer from drowsiness and the need to sleep more - up to 12 hours a day compared to my normal 7 hours a day before I used to take cipralex. I am sure this is directly due to cipralex even though the side effect is not listed as a common side effect of taking cipralex.
Avatar m tn It is probably the safest, but also may cause the most drowsiness. I was knocked out at first on the liquid. Your body is going through a major change and you need to be prepared with things to help your body adjust at a slow and consistant pace. It is a hard road and only those who have been down it, can help you get to the end. God will be in control and I hope by now you have a beautiful healthy baby. You can always take Benadryl for nausea and to help with sleep.
Avatar f tn Within a couple of days almost all of the symptoms disappeared (nausea, bloating, vomiting, fullness, dizziness, swollen ankles and feet, fast heart beats, and more) and within a week or so even the fast heart rate and early beats disappeared. I know everything was related to the same thing causing the nausea. Once that causal factor was blocked, the nausea disappeared and everything else went back to normal.
Avatar f tn Also my doctor prescribed a medication called Provigil to help counteract the drowsiness caused by my medications because I do take several and all of them may cause drowsiness. Perhaps you can research Provigil and see if that may be an option for you, I know it has helped me tremendously. Good luck!
Avatar m tn I will stick on the last half mg for a couple of weeks, and see how things develop. I know that fatigue and drowsiness is not listed as a side effect of zocor, but there is a lot of stuff on the net suggesting the side effects of statins are far more extensive than we realise. Anyway, I have been off of it for five days now, with no change to the fatigue. Will probably risk staying off for a couple of weeks, and then go back on. Thanks for your comments.
Avatar m tn 2 weeks after my last unprotected encounter, i have been experiencing drowsiness, and between 7pm and 8PM i start to get really sleepy which is not my usual. It's 4PM and the whole day today i feel like i wanted to lie down and sleep. i remember going to sleep last night at 8pm and waking up at 4am today. I think that is enough sleep, yet it feels like i wanted more.
1831849 tn?1383228392 I just started taking baclofen for spasticity and recently upped my dose to 10mg 3X/Day. It helps but the associated drowsiness is killer. There are times when I'm sitting at work and just can't keep my eyes open. Any thoughts on alternatives or ways to combat the church nods? Caffeine is not an option as it wreaks havoc with my bladder...
4462086 tn?1355115778 When the headace unloosen its like av wave of pressure going down my body. The result is muscel weakness and drowsiness. Often i get confused a cries a lot. And it feel like a am drunk? Sometimes i also walk like a drunk. I hate this feeling. I do not drink or use any kind of substanse (expect of activelle - østrogen). Have anybody of you fellow Chiarians had this feeling of drowsiness and walking like a drunk (excuse me for my bad english.....
Avatar f tn If that does not work, then you probably need a prescription for Zofran which blocks the nausea and vomiting (which is caused by the drugs). Many of us used Zofran. It works very well for most of us. I took 8 mg every 8 hours for a few months. Don't let this go. It will snowball. If the phenergan does not work, then ask for Zofran. Zofran does not make you sleepy. Phenergan does. Phenergan is cheaper, but Zofran works better (in my opinion). It is used to treat the nausea from Chemo.
Avatar f tn I have this problem since last year but last year it was due to my my allergy nose. Now my nose is cleared but i am still having this problem, i am feeling totally breathless, and whenever i felt breathless I'll ve terrible headache and drowsiness. I need to breath really hard but still i don't get enough air. I seen a doc again describing my headache too, he suggest that i might having migraine.
Avatar f tn All it did was put me to sleep, then when I woke up I just felt drunk and groggy and was still sick as a dog. I loved zofran though, I wouldn't have been able to eat at all or even drink if I hadn't of had it.
Avatar f tn This is just a informational post for any mommies who may be taking Zofran and also for mommies who took Zofran and gave birth to a baby with any defects.
