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....
How many of you ladies are still taking zofran? My morning sickness is terrible. I'm 15 weeks and I throw up at least 5 times a day unless I take zofran and I've tried everything else and nothing works. But I know my doctor like personally and she assured me that it was safe and if it were her she would take it. I've lost about 30 pounds and only gained back 7 so she's worried about my weight. And I've lost it because of nausea. So how many Andre still taking it?
♡ first and foremost Congratulations! I have the same thing and I'm taking Zofran. I have heard and read numerous articles and talked to my Doctor and other doctors about my concerns. Seriously at first I didn't want to take it and I waited as long as I could. Now I'm almost 17 weeks pregnant and still suffering from morning sickness ect and have continued to loose weight and have to be hospitalized because of it and Zofran seems to work the best.
I've also been taking it since I was 7 weeks and I'm 38 and still take it.
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!). I am now 33+4 and my little girl is very healthy and while I've lost a lot of weight in this prehnancy she is measuring large for GA, so very like my first.
I had miscarriages my past 2 pregnancies. I can't prove it was zofran related but I think so. Both occurred about a week after a started taking it. This is my 3rd pregnancy and I refused the zofran and so far baby is perfect.
I haven't heard of any risks and my doctor is pretty straight forward!
Is zofran safe to rake during pregnancy? I've read some stories and some say it's not and can cause heart defects is this true?
It is perfectly fine to take while pregnant I took it threw out my first pregnancy and I'm currently taking it now threw my second pregnancy :)
This is my second pregnancy , my first was so awful I wasn't keeping anything down not even meds and I lost 20lbs the first trimester from my MS. I'm hoping this one goes smoothly . I'm only 4 weeks along but I'm. Starting to get nasousous and feeling like I'm about to throw up at all times so my dr . Put me on Zofran (which she did the first pregnancy put I couldn't keep it down so I barely took it) did you guys ever take it ? Does it really work .
I'm not sure but I took it all through my pregnancy with my son and he was just fine and I just now stopped taking it this pregnancy with my twins it was the only thing that would some what help with me
I used it my first pregnancy and my daughter turned out fine. This pregnancy they weren't as giving for it because I guess tests going on or something. But I had no appetite because everytime I ate I would be so nauseas and couldn't drink water even. Then would just throw up stomach acid.
Any already moms used ZOFRAN during their pregnancy and baby came out perfectly fine?
i started zofran a four weeks ago and i must admit i feel guilty for taking the pills but i was prescribed the pills vecause i couldnt hold anything down. i tried eveything and nothing helped. Zofran has been helping so much! i am able to keep foods down. still get horrible nausea but at least im able to eat. i tried to stop taking them but i threw up the whole entired day.
Don't worry about it. They wouldn't give it to you if itcaused any harm.
