"I've been traveling and taking Zofran. In the past if I took Zofran once, it seemed to be okay. But after taking multiple doses, these last few days of travel, I've been having nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, muscle spasms and numbness/tingling in my limbs. When I would feel a little off, I would take Zofran not realizing that it was making things worse for me!!! I also looked up any possible drug interactions and it appears that it has a major negative interaction with Zoloft (which I take!). It's ruined the first part of my trip and I'm praying that I can start feeling better so I can enjoy the trip that I have dreamed about for decades now!"

"This stuff works like a dream and quickly! I take over 20 meds a month, and sometimes I just get flat out nauseated from my "cocktail from hell". I have also had it administered in an IV, and it cant be beat. The only downfall is the cost...the last I heard it is $20 per pill, and Medicaid balks at paying for it."

"I have been taking Ondansetron, 4 mg ODT for years to treat severe nausea after I eat too many carbs during a meal. When I feel the nausea starting, I put 2 tablets under my tongue followed by a Chewy Tum and a Prilosec ODT. I was given Promethazine before Zofran was available to me which worked fantastic cuz it puts you to sleep and you sleep thru the nausea episode which is not practical when you are working. Zofran saved me by allowing me to recover from nausea episodes taking 30 minutes out of my day vs 1/2 or entire day off work. Great drug!!!"

"I have been suffering with cyclic vomiting syndrome for around 5-6 years now and zofran is the only thing that works. My nausea and vomiting is so severe that I do need to take double the recommended dose, however it does work. I have never had a single side effect from Zofran. I understand this drug might not work for some people, but for me it is great!"

"First time I took it I felt better almost instantly- it was truly crazy! The second time was the same but the third time it didn't help as much. However, it helped some and has so far kept me a little less feeling like I'm gonna puke. Better than nothing."

"I am/was taking this medicine to combat nausea from post chemo treatments and I found that it did give me a headache and I could not stand the taste it left in my mouth when the medicine disintegrated on my tongue. "

"I use this when I am driving and have nausea and was under doctor's instructions to take it twice a day until I was prescribed the scolopamine patch for nausea. Now, I just take it on the times I feel nauseated with the patch, which is not much. I like the dissolvable tablets because they are quicker than the pills to absorb and I can just carry them with me in my purse, unlike the phenergan suppositories, which have to be refrigerated or kept in a cooler when going somewhere."

"Zofran is a miracle drug for me. I always have some on hand. I suffer from GERD, IBS, gastritis, malabsorption, endometriosis, and the list goes on. Nausea is a nagging symptom that I have often, and I vomit on a regular basis. Zofran has kept me out of the ER on many occasions due to severe vomiting. It also gets me through the occasional rounds of antibiotics as they really mess with my stomach. It does cause some pretty bad headaches when taken on a regular basis, but I will take a headache over vomiting any day. Could not recommend enough! It has been a total lifesaver!"

"I take Zofran as part of my treatment for panic disorder that often causes nausea. This drug has never failed me. It always cures my nausea within an hour, and I've never thrown up while taking it. Only problem is it makes me constipated, and sometimes gives me a headache."

"Frequent migraines and Cervicogenic headaches often make me extremely nauseous, which subsequently may cause me to vomit, not a good occurrence with massive headaches. I’ve also had intractable vomiting, and received zofran IV or suppository (effective but unpleasant). I’ve tried other anti nausea medications to little effect. 1 dissolving tablet at the onset of pain-related nausea works extremely well for me. In over a decade of taking it (including while pregnant) I’ve had no side effects despite being on a number of medications."

"I have taken Zofran for migraines and cyclical vomiting syndrome for nearly 2 decades. The last 8 years, I have taken it daily. It worked wonders for several years; however, my health has rapidly declined from chronic illness and a couple of autoimmune disorders. Now, when I take it, I throw up in a matter of minutes. I'm wondering if I'm reacting badly because I've taken it for so long? I think I'll talk to my doctor about stopping it for a while to see if it's causing me more trouble than it's worth. Overall, it worked wonders for me for 10-15 years. I'm deducting points for taste and possible long-term side effects."

"I took ondansetron swallow-pill at 4mg and it was starting to help. My physician increased the dose to 8mg but it was now a mouth dissolving-format and made my nausea FAR WORSE. Pharmacy says the can distribute 8mg in the swallow pill form, but the doctor has to prescribe it in that format."
