Reviews for Ondansetron to treat Nausea/Vomiting, Chemotherapy Induced

Zofran (ondansetron): My Mother was diagnosed with Ovarian cancer and had to undergo months of chemotherapy which caused her to be severely sick (she was 69 at the time of diagnosis). The medication for sickness that the hospital gave her didn't work, and she still vomited and felt drained etc from both the vomiting and the chemotherapy. I went to my GP (I'm English) and asked him if there was anything which he could prescribed to help her as it was terrible seeing her going through this, and he prescribed Zofran. I cannot praise this medication enough, within moments of her taking it, her sickness subsided and she continued through her chemotherapy taking only the Zofram and she was never sick again!!

ondansetron: My mum started taking Zofran when she was on Folfox-4 Protocol (5-FU and Oxaliplatin) for the treatment of Stage IV colorectal cancer. Zofran was instrumental in removing the nausea and vomiting side effects that usually accompanies this treatment. Mum rarely had any vomiting or nausea attacks while she was using Zofran. The only side effect was slight chapping on the lips which was easily treated by using topical creams.
