Two children later, no issues having used Zofran. :>) Good luck and get your information from your own doctor. That is your best source.
Zofran for pregnant women has been available for almost 20 years if it was as bad as they say we wouldn't have just been hearing about ambulance chasing lawsuits.
I had severe morning sickness with my daughter to the point I couldn't keeps down spoons of water eve for my entire pregnancy I was on it so me and baby didn't die. This time around u was o. It until I was 22 weeks along. My children are perfect.
Dmpnonna, I weighed 120 before pregnancy. Minus 40 pounds. I got down to 79 pounds. I went into preterm labor bc my body just simply could not support the weight of my baby. At 22 weeks my baby would not have survived. I was told by so many doctors "you have your baby now, he WILL die" zofran saved his life. If it wasn't for zofran I would weigh 107 now and I wouldn't still be carrying our sweet little boy at 30 weeks. Sometimes drugs are necessary.
Zofran and Phenergan are a class C. I was given Diclegis. It works amazing. And I occasionally take ginger root.
My brothers girlfriend was on zofran most her pregnancy and my niece was and is fine. My oldest sister was on zofran with both her children and my niece was born not breathing and my nephew had to have a blockage removed from his heart a month after being born. So I personally don't want to take any chances. Good luck whichever u choose.
I am currently 26 weeks pregnant. I'm currently taking Zofran because I can't keep anything down as far as food. After reading a few post in this group. I hav heard about people using Zofran and there babies coming out with defects or women having miscarriages....
Just saw a class action suit on tv against Zofran during pregnancy saying of your baby is or was born with a heart defect or birth defect to call them..I was prescriped yesterday for this medicine and took one today. Has anyone else taken them?
Ok im sure all of us have heard by now about the risks of taking zofran while pregnant and how their is a large lawsuit being formed from women who took zofran and their child was born with cleft pallet or lip. I am now 27 weeks and 4 days. I remembered that when i got in a car accident back in November i was perscribed perkaset for pain, and ondansentron (zofran) for nausea from taking the perks. At that time i was either 12 or 13 weeks.
Hi ladies, I just heard on the news yesterday that they are stopping Zofran for pregnant women because it causes cleft palates, heart murmurs, still borns and more. Zofran isn't suppose to be used for pregnant women but for cancer patients. It was never meant to be consumed by a pregnant woman but the pharmaceutical company paid off a lot of doctors to give it to pregnant women.
I am no new mommy. I have five children. This pregnancy is driving me up the wall. This nausea is causing me more grief than ever before. I need some type of relief. I can barely eat let alone work! Can anybody tell me anything to help?!
I take promethezine and it seems to make me vomit 5 times a day vs. The 13 times I experienced on zofran. Right now the only thing I can look.at food wise or even attempt to eat are fruit cups of peaches. I am literally surviving off of peaches and ice chips. Although i was sick the entire time in my first pregnancy, i could at least survive off of cereal/milk and fish. Hang in there though...things have to get better.
I was sick for the first 6 months of my pregnancy with my eldest of my children. All I could keep down was milk.. I lost so much weight but I hated moving.. I would roll over and want to go back to sleep. Honestly,I had to force feed myself to have any energy. The good part is that it doesn't last forever.. One day you will get up and feel better.
You're not lazy. You're making a baby and that takes a lot.
What helped you with morning sickness? With my other two children I was sick the entire time, so far with this baby I haven't gotten sick but I sooo would like to know what helped you get through it
.
Well the Zofran hasn't ever actually had a human have a direct problem from Zofran. There hasn't been direct proof, lawyers just noticed this was one thing in common women had when there children had a defect. But most woman are prescribed Zofran and have been for many years. Just talk to your doctor about it. In the research I have done and the doctors I have talked to say its safe to take.
I took zofran and my girl is just fine. But pineapple, hard peppermints, toast with a lil bit of butter, and bananas helped too.
Any reviews on zofran ? Im 20 weeks and ive been taking it once a day almost my whole pregnancy to help me keep down food. But now im hearing bad things about it. I havent had an ultra sound yet so im worried about it?
I'm now 12w3d and I've been having really bad morning sickness to the point I have to go to the hospital 3times a week just for fluids and I've been taking the prescription zofran since I was 9 weeks. I recently saw that zofran is being sued for causing birth defects.. I've asked my doctor about it and she just says that there is no evidence yet.. I'm trading the pill form and getting thru iv.. I'm a ftm and I just don't know what to do right now.
How many mommies here had to take zofran? Is it really safe I am taking it now to help me on my sickness but worries still in my mind. Share your thought about this med.
