t working that well, but our insurance said no because it is much more expensive. There is a generic Zofran now but it also is way more expensive than Phenergan and Compazine. I should have added that Joe didn't do all that much actual vomiting but he had lots of dry heaves. We tried some of the ginger cures also but no miracles there. I didn't give him ginger capsules because they are blood thinning and Joe's platelets are so low that I don't want to mess with that.
I took the generic zofran with my first and had to with this baby. Nothing wrong with my babies. I feel like there is a risk with every medicine. If you look up side effects to anything there is always somethi g.But sometimes you don't have a choice. I was puking non stop. Until 20 weeks. Side effects are very minimale to very few people.
I have terrible morning sickness and I was given a prescription for ondansetron 4mg which is the generic version of zofran. I'm scared to take it because of the possible side effects and the warnings I've seen on TV. I don't want to take any risks when it comes to my baby. Any thoughts on this?
I was prescribed Promethazine (generic for Phenergan) & it helped me a lot.. the only downside, at least for me, was it made me extremely sleepy!
Ondansetron is Zofran hun. Its just the generic name for zofran. Even though theres a lawsuit, id say its more of a money maker. I took it both pregnancies and my babies came out fine. Youve got to look at whether the benefits outweigh the risk with ANY medication. If youre miserable and need to eat for baby, take it. My advice is try to only take it when u really need it, not on a regular basis. Stop as soon as symptoms ease up. Lots of water too.
I'm experiencing extreme nausea am vomiting... I am 7 weeks...my doctor prescribed me zofran...I am scared to take it because I've seen a commercial about it..I took half a tab today. And I threw that up.
I took the generic form of Zofran so I'm not sure if that actually makes a difference. But I took it with my first child and he is perfectly healthy. I wouldn't worry until you actually have to.
Really a good news. I will like to know the possible price for the drugs and which company are going to be given authorize to deliver the drugs.
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?
I went to the er and got ondansetron (generic for zofran) but the doc prescribed it bc I literally kept nothing but one icee a day down. I got a script for 12 and thats it. All I know is they do not prescribe it to one indivodual in large quantities and that bc it can affect and stay in your blood for so long they have to monitor how much an individual gets.
Mine never went away i had it my whole pregnancy. My insurance also wouldn't cover it. I was on the generic zofran n was still paying over $200 a month from rite aid for it. I couldn't survive with out it or o ended in the hospital with fluids in me. It broke me monthly as far as cash but it was a life saver. But i have heard that it doesn't always help everyone. I also was on phenegrin but it din work just made me super sleepy but couldn't sleep cuz i was so sick.
m almost 23 weeks and I had the usual vomiting in the first tri but from 14-16 weeks I was fine. But ever since 17 weeks until now my vomiting is getting worst. I take zofran when I feel nauseous but I still throw up. What else can I do. I usually throw up when I wake up from naps. Or after my breakfast.
Patent comes off dec 2009 if I recall. As far as cost - if you have insurance once it's generic it usually goes on the cheaper generic copay list if you have that sort of insurance. so for instance if with your insurance you pay $30 for non-generic drugs on the approved list and $10 for generics on the approved list - you'd be paying $20 less/month for your valtrex. Typically it's 30% reduction in price when it goes generic initially for paying out of pocket.
drugstore.
This drug is still available as a generic, it looks like the price of the drug has increased due to higher cost for Walgreens to purchase it. I'm afraid the other drugs available for BPH will probably be as or more expensive than Doxazosin, but I would check with your local Walgreens pharmacist for more price options.
s co-pay through my insurance is so high! $80 for 90 days. I could understand this price for the brand, but for generic? Anyway, I had tried this version as I had to with my last insurance, it and I didn't do as well on it. I tried it for a week. I an wondering if it was just my imagination. So if anyone has made the switch successfully, please post!
brand entecavir in india is about 100usd per month so you don t even have to look for the lowest price of the generic which is half that prce.generics are very good to lower prices, virad has reached as low as 7usd per month in some asian countries
both antivirals are useless on virus and only lower replication but the infection goes on and usually more cells gets infected under these antivirals.
THEY ARE NOT AN HBV CURE!
I was prescribed Ondansetron (generic Zofran) by the hospital for hyperemesis from 6 weeks until 17 weeks after being admitted multiple times due to dehydration and starvation. I still felt ill after stopping but I was able to cope with it better. 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!).
