Anyone taking Zophran for nausea?!

Question

One Dr prescribed it, and another said it’s not recommended for pregnancy anymore. 
So I’ve been taking it for a week. You think it’ll be alright?

Answer

My doctor gave me Zofran for my first pregnancy. Everything I read about it said that it only slightly increases the risk of birth defects, and most women are more healthy if they take it because then they can get better nutrition. I felt good about taking it.

Answer

I took it the entire time my last preganacy and had a very healthy baby.  The link to birth defects is at very high doses and not usually the dose most tend to take. It is important for you to get and keep nutrients so if nothing else is working then take the zofran.

Answer

I took it with my son starting at ten weeks due to do much weight lost. I’m almost at the same point now and they won’t give it. Nothing helps. Tried Dramamine, b6 and unison, Bonjesta. Having constant diarrhea too times two weeks now. Worried about dehydration soon. Wish I could have Zofran!

Answer

Yes I've heard its linked to birth defects

Answer

My dr prescribes it after 13 weeks, I took it with both of my last pregnancies because that was all that helped keep food down. I still lost weight both pregnancies, but it kept me from having to be hospitalized.

Answer

They stopped using it for pregnancy because it was linked to birth defects. Try Diclegis instead!
