5 | Nausea | None really. | It really helped out the nausea. | M | 49 | 8 days 2X day | 3/5/2012 | 3 | Nausea | I had two episodes of severe stomach cramps while taking this drug. The pain was excruciating, and I thought I was going to die from it. I was pregnant at the time, and childbirth had nothing on that pain. It was relieved when it turned out I had diarrhea. I believe it was from the long term use of the drug. I would still use it for occasional nausea relief, but not for regular use. | I worked somewhat for the nausea, but there are better drugs out there. If you are nauseous and need to function during the day, Zofran is the way to go. | M | 26 | 21 days 3X day | 5/5/2012 | 5 | Bacterial gastroenteritis | Sleepiness. I loved it. This drug is so effective for nausea. Stops it dead in its tracks in less than an hour. Way better than phenergan!!! | F | 25 | 3 days 80 mg | 11/22/2012 | 4 | Morning sickness during pregnancy | This drug was a life safer being I had morning sickness 24/7. However fixing the nausea problem causes other things. I noticed I started getting bad headaches only when taking zofran. Also my vision was blurry, and I was extremely tired. Zofran only worked for me if I was able to take before I started vomiting if I didn't the med didnt work. | F | 31 | 3 weeks 8mg | 11/28/2012 | 3 | Pregnancy morning sickness | Extreme constipation, which I did not realize was related to the Zofran until I got off of it, occasional headaches and somewhat increased fatigue | I had to wean myself slowly, taking 4-mg twice a day, then 3, then 2, then 1 and finally, 1 mg once a day for a week. If I lessened the dose more quickly, I'd feel "good" for a couple days, then the nausea would return and I'd go back on Zofran and be useless for 2-4 days due to fatigue and headaches. So relieved to be off of it now and having normal bowel movements. | F | 32 | 3.5 months 1-4 mg 2X day | 1/10/2013 | 5 | Nausea from gastritis | None at all | Was prescribed this on an as needed basis when I had gastritis. I wish I could keep a stock of this. It's a miracle pill and served me quite well. It doesn't always completely eliminate nausea, especially if you're already feeling really sick, but it will take the edge off and keep you from vomiting. Most helpful if you take it right when you think you're going to start getting sick. One of the few drugs I trust. | F | n/a 1X day | 7/21/2013 | 5 | Counteract side effects | Slight headache. Expensive (if that counts as a side effect). Fantastic drug; it's saving my life while I take Biaxin (which gives me severe nausea). Nausea disappears almost immediately when I take a Zofran. I only wish each tablet lasted longer! | F | 30 | 2 weeks 4mg | 2/24/2014 | 5 | Nausea from Medications | Got me through trying many SSRI's and birth controls. Maybe some slight fatigue but overall really no significant side effects. Thank you zofran for reducing/eliminating my nausea. | F | 16 | 1 years 4-8 mg | 5/9/2014 | 3 | Morning sickness | At first I was so happy not to be feeling sick as it really helped with my morning sickness. BUT... on day 3 of taking the drug I had to call an ambulance as I had very servere stomach cramps, server sweating, pins and needles and complete numbness in both arms and hands and all my fingers locked. I didnt know it was the drug and as my sickness was better i stopped taking them for 5 days. Then my sickness came back on day 6 so i started taking them again, 1 tablet 3 times a day. On day 3 of taking the tablets the same thing happened. I had the worst stomach cramps in my life, ive never known anything like it. I wanted to die. I actually thought i was dying. Labour pains have nothing on these pains. The pain was excruciating and i didnt know what to do with myself. I also found these server stomach pains to come on after eating. Just be aware if this happens to you then see your gp straight away. I did and came off Ondancsetron there and then. | F | 32 | 2 weeks 4MG | 7/31/2014 | 4 | Nausea | None | I took this while having to take hydrocodone after a surgery because the hydrocodone made me very nauseous. This knocked the nausea out during my recovery, however when I went to the ER some time later for a kidney stone, the pain made me incredibly nauseous and they gave me Zofran again and it didn't even touch my nausea. It will work if you're not having nausea from extreme pain is what I gathered from that experience. | M | 29 | 2 weeks N/A 1X day | 12/17/2014 | 5 | Chronic Nausea | I had a headache the first few times I took it but nothing after that. | Helps with nausea caused by all sorts of reasons. | F | 29 | 4mg 4X day | 12/22/2014 | 3 | HG pregnancy | Headaches during first pregnancy (swallow pill). None during second pregnancy (dissolve under tongue). | I still threw up a lot, but it lessened the nausea somewhat. | F | 23 | 4 months lowest | 12/29/2014 | 5 | Crohn's Disease & IBS | when i first started taking it a little headache & sensitivity to brightness. | Literally the BEST medication out there for somebody who is nauseous ALL THE TIME. Works wonders with nausea from Crohn's Disease! And works wonders with side effects from medications. Highly recommended. | F | 20 | 5 months 8MG 3X day | 4/16/2015 | 1 | Nausea | Extreme stomach pain and bloating. Constipation. I stopped taking the medication after the second day since the pain and bloating made it very difficult to eat.. | The maker lists stomach pain as an unlikely but serious side effect of the drug. I guess I was one of the unlucky people who experienced it. I had no fever or other symptoms so I believe it was the medication that caused these issues. | M | 62 | 2 days 8mg 1X day | 4/10/2016 | 2 | nausea,DRY HEAVING, | Intense headache that was very similar to a migraine headache. | Helped a good amount with horrible stomach problems,but adding headache made it not worth it-sadly. | F | 47 | 3 days 4mg | 4/30/2016 | 3 | 1 days | 9/24/2016 | 1 | Stomach virus | Was given an injection to help with nausea during a very severe bout of gastroenteritis. It did help with nausea, but gave me the mother of all headaches. The headache is a cross between a very bad sinus headache and a migraine. I still have this headache 60 hours after getting the injection. So glad it works for others - just not for me. | F | 57 | 2 days 4mg | 12/19/2016 | 5 | Migraines nausea | I take it as needed and it helps a lot with nausea, and migraines, vertigo | No side effects | F | 40 | 6 months 8 mg 1X day | 11/19/2017 | 3 | Nausea | Terrible headache and extreme agitation! | Helped nausea but couldn’t tolerate side effects. | F | 67 | 1 days 8 mg | 10/19/2018 | 3 | Morning sickness | I experienced extremely bad stomach cramps I couldn't move | It helps with nausea but it caused me to have really bad stomach cramps | F | 36 | 1 days | 5/25/2019 |
