Avatar f tn So I have hyperemesis and I have to keep nausea medicine in my system so I have to take 4mgs of dissolvable zofran every 4 hours. It so difficult because I have a son and the meds make me so extremely tired. Ive never felt so tired before.
1468090 tn?1289093410 Zofran is great for controling medicine induced nausea. But I have not seen it work well with other forms as it doesn't trigger the nausea center in the brain like phenergan. But it worked better than compizine for the chemi patients (but than again that would be medicine induced). My hospice patients liked it better though becuase it didn't cause the drowsiness. That is what I know.
Avatar f tn Hi, I am 6 weeks pregnant almost 7 now and I have had the worse nausea of my life. Not much of throwing up just nausea. I was prescribed Zofran to help with that but I have found that a lot of women who have taken it have had their child born with deformities. Has anyone taken this medicine before???
Avatar f tn U should get your doctor to prescribe u some nausea meds nothing helped me til my ob put me on zofran and reglan I had to alternate them every 4hrs and even like that i lost about 13lbs because i couldn't keep anything down
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 I experienced constipation, and it honestly didn't do much for my nausea. So now I take both Raglan and Zofran for morning (all-day) sickness. A home remedy that I find useful is drinking ginger tea (ginger root peeled and sliced, with hot water. You can add sugar or honey for taste). Good luck!
Avatar f tn I am currently 24 weeks and have been taking zofran for the past 16 weeks... It's helped me immensely.
Avatar f tn Get a nausea medicine from your dr!
Avatar f tn I am 25 weeks along with my 5th. I have been sick from day 1 nausea vomiting the works. I also suffer from severe headaches due to intracranial hypertension. Well I stopped taking my medication for the IIH because there was no telling if it would cause birth defects. I also held out on taking meds for the nausea until about 3 weeks ago. I had the rx for Zofran but wasn't taking them, I took the meds for about 5 days out of the 3 weeks.
Avatar f tn Zofran is the most recommended medicine for nausea while your pregnant .
Avatar f tn has anyone taken zofran before ?
Avatar f tn How do you deal with your nausea/vomiting. I have not been able to eat anything the last 2-3 days due to nausea. I have nothing left to throw up its all dry heaves. I'm trying to drink and eat but every time I do I throw it right back up.
2147300 tn?1369689688 t overdo. That can lead to nausea as well. if you do feel nauseous, take the Zofran right away. It should help fairly quickly. I think that sometimes people forget about taking the Riba with food or forget about the water and they get into a cycle of nausea. Your doc will refill the Zofran if you need more later. As far as butt head syndrome magnified with Incivek (your description made me smile), definitely go get your AD script. If it worked before, hopefully it will help again.
Avatar f tn Has anyone else taken zofran while preg? I read that it was bad for baby one some sites and is a miracle drug on others. I'm just concerned and would never want to take anything that could harm my baby.
Avatar f tn I would try to stop taking it what you heard is True I was given the medication and stopped taking it after the first pill
Avatar f tn my doctor prescribed it to me... but she also gave me a second nausea medicine... but i decided i wasnt goinf to take the second one because a side effect was having the shakes permanately for the rest of my life... so it made me wonder about thr zofran...
11529448 tn?1419052525 So my doctor prescribed me some nausea medicine called zofran and I was watching a commercial on tv and it was talking about how babies are being born with birth defects after using the nausea medicine zofran. So should I stop taking it and find other ways to deal with the nausea ? or should I continue to use it if my doctor recommended it.
12103503 tn?1423448886 Is it safe to take zofran during pregnancy. My doctor perscibed it to me for nausea. But then i got freaked out about a commercial i saw in tv about zofran causing birth defects.
Avatar f tn I still take it religiously. Every single day. I lost around 40 pounds in the first two trimesters even with taking it but it was the only possible way of getting food in front of my mouth let alone in my mouth. Now at 30 weeks I don't throw up a lot but my nausea is horrible so I need my zofran! I've taken well over 240 pills since day one of pregnancy and my baby boy is super healthy and strong!
8377023 tn?1399509160 I took zofran too and am 38 weeks and my baby is more than healthy. Everything we do can possibly have side effects. I'm just giing to stop drinking water too... If something is going to be wrong then it's going to be wrong that's all.
Avatar f tn OMG zofran is the best medicine ever made! Im still taking it and im almost in my third trimester lol. Although it does cause some constipation but its better than throwing up constantly.
Avatar m tn Although she had nausea while in the hospital he was progressing and we thought the remaining nausea was related to the medicine for stool softner. Now that she is home, the nausea is constant today. Any advice?
Avatar f tn Any suggestions on nausea relief? I was prescribed Zofran but I prefer not to take it. Any home remedies you can recommend?
14346590 tn?1451854557 So has anyone taken zofran while pregnant? I try to stay away from all medicine except my vitamins but the other night I ate something and I'm guessing my baby really didn't like it because I've been kind of sick since then but the other night the nausea was unbearable so I took one.
Avatar f tn Hi Mommies,... Does your doctor gave you alternative medicine for nausea than zofran because we all know they have bad reputation I was wondering if there is other medicine that can help nausea also. Ive been prescribe by 15pcs of zofran and I don't want to take them anymore.
Avatar f tn m 7 weeks pregnant and I went to the Dr last week and my Dr prescribed Zofran. The problem is everytime I take this medicine, I see the commercial on TV that talks about Zofran causing some birth defects. Is anyone else taking this medicine or have heard these birth defects. Thanks!
