zofran

Avatar f tn Ok, my nausea meds are just not working, don't want to show up again in ER, realize the pills are not as effective a the IV form, any suggestions? I've had protonix, zofran and am holding out on the phenergen until bedtime as it will kick butt If that doesn't work, am clueless know that nausea meds calm stomach so I can eat and if I don't, stomach acid multiplies........egads.........knock me out for a week!
Avatar f tn If Zofran is not working, ask for something else. There's many antinausea meds out there that are safe. Keep trying until you find something that works for you.
Avatar f tn Does anyone still get sick after taking zofran? I feel like its not even working. My last pregnancy I was sick the whole time to. Im only 11 weeks long way to go!
Avatar f tn Ok so I know there are a lot of working moms to be out there. How do you handle the vomiting and nausea and still go to and stay at work? 14 weeks and have been so sick all the to me its hard to stay at work or go to work. I started taking those anti nausea and anti vomiting medicine it worked for 2 weeks now im struggling again. I'm constantly nauseous or vomiting. I'm barely holding on to my job.
1201433 tn?1328997637 I just want to say it is like night and day since they gave me a script for some , started today, I was up all last night vomiting, do not suffer ask your doctor for some!!
Avatar f tn Thanks ladies i was scared my doctor first prescribed me declegis but it isnt working what so ever but tge zofran works fine its just everytime i take it i see the commercial on tv
Avatar f tn I took it with my first child but not very often I also lost 18lbs in my first trimester all although it did work it's now linked to many birth defects and I would suggest not taking it.
1711722 tn?1356487554 But I paid close attention this weekend, and still got sick at the same time, so I am not sure if the Zofran is not working for me or just needs a time adjustment or I need to up the dose. Your input here helps, so thank you again everyone.
Avatar f tn Now I worry about being overwhelmed by my nausea while working. Are there any nausea and vomiting meds that I can request for a prescription from my doctor that could help me other than Zofran?
8518086 tn?1407289593 No, I actually went to the ER a couple of weeks ago and they prescribe just zofran but is not working anymore.
Avatar f tn zofran is safe :). there are 2 nausea medicines that are considered safe for pregnancy, and zofran sounds like the better choice for you (since phenergan makes you sleepy, and that's the other option, i think it would freak you out!). every medicine is going to carry warnings, and there will be people who SWEAR that this medicine caused this or that...but that's the internet for you. it is considered safe, and your OB only prescribed it because they felt it was safe....
Avatar f tn Just curious. I've been taking zofran through out my entire pregnancy to help with nausea. I'd take only one in the morning and I'd never feel sick or throw up at all. Now that I'm 36 weeks, I throw up at least once a day and it's always unexpected. The zofran isn't working anymore :/ anyone go through this too?
Avatar n tn Is she not eating because she is nauseous or because it makes her have seizures? If she is nauseous, she can try a medicine like zofran. If the only reason she is not eating is because she feels that food goes straight through her, then she needs more encouragement to eat.
Avatar f tn It's working wonders was diagnosed with severe morning sickness. First day taking it feeling so much better !!!!!!
Avatar f tn I think I'm going to suck it up, and eat prunes(fresh) and see how it goes. I am also taking zofran, which I'm sure is the main cause of my constipation.
Avatar f tn Dicelgis should be taken at night because it makes yu tired I took that and it helped me sleep and made me feel not nauseous. Not sure about zofran cuz my OBGYN doesn't like it.
1419259 tn?1303438666 I also needed zofran with both pregnancies. It made me not vomit, but the nausea was still there.
Avatar f tn Well I was going to say zofran but I guess that's not working for ya :/ I'm sorry it worked for me enough to be able to tend to my son and have somewhat of a little appetite..hopefully you will grow out of it soon but you can always talk to your doctor and see what they think..baby should be fine though just try and stay as hydrated as possible!
Avatar f tn My vote is for Zofran (8mg). I had substantial nausea and vomiting. In addition to the Zofran, I also have the patch behind the ear. Unfortunately for me, the Zofran kept me from vomiting, but it didn't take the constant nausea away, hence two medications.
7294220 tn?1390280420 Zofran is a small pill that dissolves and starts working right away. It lasts 8 hrs for me usually when the Zofran only partially helps and lasts maybe 3 hrs...
Avatar f tn s not make those people who do have difficulties to do with because of zofran feel like they are not valid. Not everything has the same effect on everyone.
Avatar n tn Should I be worried because I was prescribed Zofran for my nausea? I was in the hospital twice in one week very sick I kept throwing up and turned out I was dehydrated so they prescribed me Zofran because the other medicine was not working for me. I am doing much better now but I'm going to be concerned throughout my pregnancy now because I hear Zofran is not safe. I am in my first trimester,7 weeks 6 days with my 2nd baby.
2147300 tn?1369689688 I took 8 mg of Zofran every 8 hours. I did not wait to get nauseated or start vomiting (although when I started taking it I was nauseated, vomiting, and bloated. Once I got some on board, then I was able to prevent the nausea and vomiting by taking it every 8 hours. I don't see (in this blurb) how long it takes to work, but I don't think it takes long. I think it works pretty fast. It might take a couple of doses before it reaches full effect because you are already nauseated.
Avatar f tn I have zofran but it seems like it not working much.. i feel horrible everyday..
Avatar f tn Just keep hydrated and make sure you keep on your dr. I did not want the zofran pump because it scares me but I know someone who had it and loved it.
