I was prescribed zofran when I was pregnant since I was unable to keep food down. The doctor said it was safe to take its a category B med. It really helped me, hope you get some relief soon.
@homebirthadvocate the only thing I've really tried is eating, especially protein, every couple of hours. That keeps me from throwing up, but doesn't get rid of the constant nausea. I've heard of vitamin b6 with unisom, but I can't sleep all day! Lol
zofran is safer than anything else for its cause. like stated above it comes down to dire need. Ginger is a great natural option for nausea. zofran is often given to very young children to the very elderly. that should give u some sort of idea for the amount of concern needed. its pretty safe but I wouldn't use it unless I had exhausted all other options
Yeah I forgot to mention, I can't live without my sea bands! lol I'll try the b6 & ginger. I remember trying ginger caps a long, long time ago & I would always burp the nasty taste ...is there any other way? Thanks for your help. @homebirthadvocate@captivated@soon2b3
My doc told me B6 50mg three times/ day. Didn't really do much for me so I got some zofran, which works great. I only take it when I'm really miserable & working, don't want to puke in a patient's home, lol! Good luck!
I took zofran with both pregnancies. Had horrific morning sickness..sometimes it didn't even work but yes its pretty safe. I tried the sea bands but they didn't help much. Ginger ale and zofran...and sometimes lays potato chips were my best friends lol
Anything sour helped me also lemons i ate so many during this pregnancy the nausea was horrid and that helped so much. Drinking fizzy lemonade helped aswell i hope you find some relief i had it till 18 weeks it sucked.
The prego pops, lots of water and saltines did it for me. I was prescribed Zofran this one time i ended up at the hospital, but i never took the prescription to the pharmacy so i never took them.
