Why not have breastfeeding as an option to talk about, have interest in, or that (we) are knowledgeable in.
is zofran safe to take during pregnancy... im 9 weeks and 4 days and the nasuea has been so bad i cant keep anythinf down at all...
Its so bad they prescribed me zofran. Ive been taking it ever since I entered my 2nd trimester.Ive been told there is lawsuits with this medicine as it causes birth defects. Any advice?
Actually there isn't anything wrong with taking zofran... I'm actually on a zofran pump that administer the med to me continuously all day to help with my morning sickness... I'm 20 wks and my baby is doing just fine..
If it's possible to go to the doctor before your trip, I suggest maybe getting some Zofran. It's safe to take during pregnancy and is like a miracle pill.
I had the same thing and still do from time to time (I'm 11 weeks). I found that I wasn't keeping up with my increased fluid intake demands because of the nausea and vomiting. Also, my nausea was worsened by my constipation. I'm on Colace and Zofran now and the combo is really helping me stay hydrated. Good luck in nursing school! I'm a nurse and it was the best decision I ever made!
I have been prescribed that. I believe that and zofran are the two they give pregnant women. Its a lifesaver.
I used diclegis in very early pregnacy it Category A and did wonders my sickness went away around 12 weeks. If u cant keep anything down even fluids than you need something to relieve the sickness your doc wouldn't prescribe something they didn't feel was okay.
Probably much like most of you, I was told by my midwife recently, that taking zofran is safe during pregnancy. There has been many recent studies to prove, that this is not true! Taking zofran can cause birth defects, and a serious, life threatening reaction in the mother, called serotonin syndrome. My PCP told me today to use it sparingly, if I can't stop using it in entirety.

I would highly recommend Zofran. It is used for nausea and it works WONDERS! They have other drugs likes Phenergan and Compozine, but the side effects are long and AWFUL (I know because I have taken both). I just looked at the med fact on Zofran and while it doesn't say much about breastfeeding while taking Zofran, there aren't any known problems with taking it during pregnancy.
My doctor took ibuprofen off the list during my pregnancies and I was told not to take it. Advil is in that category. I only was told to use Tylenol. Ibuprofen is category C up to 30 weeks and category D after that meaning don't use before 30 weeks and REALLY don't use after that. Category C means that through animal reproduction studies, they have shown adverse events on the fetus. However a doctor can outweigh benefits to risk.
13 weeks 1 day: Anyone else have morning sickness all day, but it is way worse at night? I'm already on zofran, which helps all day until 5pm and then I feel like I've been run over. Tired and nauseous, even with the maximum dosage of zofran. Any suggestions?
On the app instead of clicking on recomended forums go to all medical support community forums and it will be in alphabetical order. Make a post and from then on the breastfeeding forum will show up in the my forums section of the app. I hope this makes sense. It's very easy once you figure it out.
Well they say MOST women began to feel better around the beginning of the second trimester, hopefully you fall into that category of women. Ask your doctor about prescribing you Zofran. It's a anti nausea medicine that works wonders. Also don't let your belly become empty. It only makes it worse. I could only keep down cold fruit & smoothies forever.
There's been mixed feelings on zofran I don't think there's an absolute warning against the Zofran but lawyers have been trying to push the idea. Iknow people who have taken it without any issues. It's such a low dose the doctors prescribe that it probably won't do any harm to the baby (as I was told by several doctors). Promethazine is actually in the same category as the Zofran as well (something I didn't know).
m stable now and baby is fine, thank God, but I am now on Zofran and Phenergan. I was very concerned about the Phenergan because it's a pregnancy category c drug, but my Dr. has eased my worries slightly by saying it's not their first choice, but they do prescribe it all the time... What meds are you on, are they helping??
