 5  Surgery and with Flagyl None. This drug has been a lifesaver for me. I wish they had it when I had morning sickness years ago. I use it for any surgery and when taking antibiotics that make you nauseas. If you are sensitive to pain meds, take this with it and it helps. F 50 5 days

 5  Hyperemesis Gravidarum Severe constipation, headaches, fatigue Very expensive drug; insurance companies would rather pay for hospital stay than 9 1/2 months of this medication; best drug (IMO) for pregnant women suffering from Hyperemesis Gravidarum F 33 9 months

 5  Severe Morning Sickness all day. some constipation in the beginning but this cleared up once my body adjusted. Some headaches which also cleared up. I call this drug my little miracle. My mom and sister were both sick all 9 months with their children and I am following in their footsteps so this has been very helpful. I was only having about 3 productive hours during my work day and I have a very detail-oriented job. Zofran helps me be able to work a full day and feel normal again. What a relief. Thanks to all who reccomended it. F 34 3 weeks

 5  morning sickness Occational headaches I was tentative about taking medication during my pregnancy, but at 9 weeks nausea was preventing me from even leaving my bed. I started by taking the prescribed dosage and felt 100% better! After a few days, I cut the pill in half to see if that would do the trick. I now take half a pill every morning and that seems to hold off nausea for the entire day. F 31 2 weeks

 5  Nausea/fear of vomiting Mild headache and sometimes dizziness This is like a miracle drug. I have a severe fear of vomiting, so I keep these on hand. If I ever get sick or start to feel really nauseated, I just need to take one and I feel better within 20-30 minutes. Like most drugs. though, it works best if you take it before symptoms have a chance to get severe. If you have a feeling that your stomachache isn't going to go away or might get really bad, or if it's one of those things where you suddenly get hit with it, take it sooner rather than later as it will work faster and relieve more of the nausea. Taking it when you're already very sick and on the verge of throwing up still helps, but it may not get rid of all the nausea, just take the edge off. I love this drug, though, I'd be so lost without it. I can now eat out at restaurants and try new foods without feeling anxious and afraid about the potential consequences. F 18

 5  Gastroparesis Constipation. However so worth it. Often have to take 8 mg, but if taken at beginning of nausea, then that 8 mg lasts all day. Worth every penny. Pheregan works better for nausea, but I can not function at work on even a small dose of phenegan. F 53 8 months

 5  Migraine cyclic vomiting I get akathesia when I take compazine, reglan and phenergan. This relieves the vomiting that occurs every 20-30 minutes. I only have these episodes 1-3 times a year but this prevents me from going into the ER. F 33 4 years

 5  Hyperemesis Gravidarum moderate constipation, headache I took this medication for Hyperemesis Gravidarum. I took it in ODT form and via IV. Both forms worked very well. I need to mention that it did not completely relieve the nausea, but it did control the vomiting. I would highly recommend this medication for anyone suffering from severe nausea +/- vomiting. F 34 8 months

 5  Morning Sickness Constipation I tried phenergen and diclegis before zofran...finally feel like I'm not a drunken sailor. Morning sickness lasted well into second trimester and zofran allowed me to still function at work, eat, and drive. I didn't throw up while taking it and it drastically reduced the constant nausea. I had initial concerns about taking while pregnant, but looked over the research and can't find any conclusive study (as the case with most medications and pregnancy) to outweigh the risk to benefit. F 31 4 months
8mg 1X day

 5  Nausea from Stomach Bug Constipation, a little tired This drug is a life saver. I have had stomach flu bug every year for the past 3 years. Each time this drug keeps me from vomiting. I may still have some slight nausea but it is 10 times better after the pill. I would be dead without it as I would rather die than throw up. I take 200 mg of Magnesium (you can get it at any drugstore) and that combats the constipation. Other over the counter remedies for constipation don't work for me. F 49 1 days

 5  Migraines Marked drowsiness and slightly dizzy at first but I could still function during the day. I had bad nausea due to migraines this helped. Worked fast. Tried other anti nausea meds in the past but they all caused major drowsiness. F 37 1 days

 5  Nausea and fear of throwing up Occasional headache or slight constipation, but only rarely. Miracle drug, if one dose doesn't work it's safe to take up to 24 mg a day I believe. It's very effective and I've never had to take that much. Miracle drug! F 23 1 days
8mg
