When will/did you stop taking Zofran?

I'm feeling less queasy but still uneasy, if that makes sense. I have been taking it regularly twice a day, sometimes only once. Just curious, when you stopped needing it or if you plan to stop taking it.

I tried to stop taking my MS meds last Friday.  I was fine for two days and then it was back even worse than when it started.  My Dr said it's up to me and unfortunately just trial and error.  I might try again around week 13 or 14.

My doctor gave me Diclectin (which is basically the same thing but I'm in Canada so sometimes our meds are manufactured by different companies, I think) Anyway I only took it twice.  I have never thrown up and I was hoping it would help with nausea but it never did.  Zofran worked for nausea?  I'm jealous.

I was on Zofran for about 3 weeks, then i had to switch to Reglan.  I started my MS sickness medicine when i was 6 weeks, and now i'm 13 and STILL taking it   Unfortunately for me i don't have a date in mind, i suppose i'll have to wait and see.

I started mine at 7 weeks and am still on it. Over the past week I have taken less (I was up to 3 a day). I plan on stopping it when I don't feel nauseauos anymore - which I hope is soon! I can say, if I am home and just feeling slightly nauseauos I try not to take it, and see how I feel. I have not thrown up, just feel like I am about to.

I stopped right around 11 weeks.  I found that I could get through the day teaching without it until the very end, and by then I just figured I should suck it up through the evening hours. 

Now, I'm finding that I'm rarely nauseous, some days not at all!  So I haven't taken any for about a week or so at this point.

I started taking it around 8w because I was starting teaching and couldn't get through the day. I am currently 13w and didn't take it yesterday or today. I'm not sure about during the work week yet because although I haven't barfed, I don't feel very well

I'm only taking 4mg each morning so I will keep experimenting and trying to go without on the weekends

this. I've been taking 4mg/day since week 7. I don't think you can plan on a date to quit... I tried a couple weekends ago, made it one day, back on the next. This weekend is ok so far. None yesterday, none today - yet. I'm really not too concerned since my doc told me if I need it, take it. No point in suffering. I did notice that my appetite was not as strong yesterday, but maybe that's good because I think it might be a little too insatiable.
