zofran users...

wondering if you ladies take it at any specific times and you notice is working better or worse? first thing in the morning? before meals? at bedtime?

i never took it with my first, but had to get it this time around. i just picked up my prescription and am looking for anything anyone can tell me about their experiences with it.

thanks!

  • I take one first thing when I wake up - and then one before bedtime. That has really cut down on the midnight nausea. I also take one around 2pm-3pm if my afternoon is bad, if it isn't I skip it.

    I hope it helps you :) It made all the difference in me being able to function!

  • I first day I took it was at night before I went to bed and it was the best night sleep I have had in a long time.  But since then it only seems to work sporatically(sp) for me. I usually feel like I am ready to get sick every morning.  So I just deal with that and take Zofran in the morning.  And in the end lunch is usually the best meal for me everyday.  It makes it better but it doesn't go away for me.

     

    Hope it works better for you...

  • I've been trying to take it only once a day.  So I take it first thing when I wake up in the morning.  It's a miracle drug.  But be sure you have some colace, miralax and lots of fiber.  Cause it only takes 3 doses to plug me up which then puts me in horrible pain from constipation to the point of throwing up from the pain!
  • I've been taking it first thing in the am and before bedtime but thinking of taking the pm dose before dinner since that's still a rough time of day for me.  One dose usually lasts a good 6 hours for me.

  • I had to take a 9 hour board exam today and i was sooo thankful I had zofran.  I took 2 pills (I have 4mg pills) as soon as I woke up this am and then took 2 again at lunch.  I rarely take 2 at a time but today was the time to do it.  It saved me.  good luck!
  • the first week it worked great for me. I would take it in the morning with breakfast and then in the mid afternoon with a snack. Now it seems to not work so well. Sometimes it make me more nauseus after taking it.

    This! I stopped taking it and I actually feel better. Not great and I still have nausea but I stopped puking.
