Ondansetron for Nausea/Vomiting "I have been using Zofran as needed every 8 hours for nausea/vomiting, and I get a lot of dry heaves on really bad days. This medicine does make you dizzy and lightheaded, but I would say it helps a little bit. But there have been times where it does not stop vomiting. It also doesn’t address the root cause of nausea and is not meant to be used for a long period of time. I would recommend trying it if you need to get nausea and vomiting under control. They use Zofran in the ER to treat nausea/vomiting."

Ondansetron for Nausea/Vomiting "Was given this drug while pregnant for morning sickness. Didn't help at all, gave me a headache and actually made me throw up a few times. My son was also born with a genetic mutation - Epidermal Nevus syndrome, which I'm sure is from the Zofran as it is not approved for use during pregnancy. If I could go back in time, I would NOT have used this during pregnancy. I was also given this drug several times for gastroenteritis with the same result - headache and increased vomiting. Did not work for me."
