Is zofran safe to take while pregnant?

Question

I keep reading mixed reviews. Is zofran safe to take while pregnant?
** edit. Ob actually prescribed me promethazine 25 mg***

Answer

Yes, girl. If your OB prescribed it, listen to them !

Answer

I have taken it with all three pregnancies with no problems.

Answer

I've had to take zofran daily since I was 6 weeks 😩 i wasn't keep anything down at all. I just tried again at 17 weeks to ween myself off of it (per my OB) and I couldn't even keep a sip of water down, I was hugging the toilet within 30 seconds. My OB has told me that the very very small risks far outweight my baby girl dying in utero because she isn't getting any nutrients at all. You have to do what's best for you and baby, head up mamma.

Answer

I was prescribed zofran but it potentially gave me a heart condition called long q t syndrome. My daughter's heart rate dropped at birth too. She's fine though. I also took promethazine for a short time, my sis in law(a nurse) was pregnant too but miscarried and gave it to me. Next time around I won't be taking zofran, even though it saved my life during the morning sickness!

Answer

I'm taking zofran right now lol it's fine.

Answer

I was told it can cause a certain heart defect and cleft lip. I was told the risks are very low. But I decided to go with promethazine instead just in case!

Answer

I was scared to take it after reading google saying the risks are low for birth defects but my OB assured me that it is safe. I tried to hold off on taking it just to be safe, but I have been taking it every day as prescribed now because it's hard living with out it at this point in my pregnancy lol

Answer

Yes. I would be more miserable than I already am without it. Been taking it almost daily since week 8. 33 weeks now and baby and I are still perfectly fine.

Answer

Yes. I take it and have been since six weeks. I wouldn't have been able to make it without it.

Answer

After your first trimester, it's fine. My doctor won't prescribe it until then.
