Problem with zofran

i got a prescription for zofran for my extreme morning sickness and some 2013 studies found a link between zofran, cleft palates, and heart malformations and the FDA no longer recommends it for early pregnancy? Anyone else heard about this or anything like it?

  • Oh my gosh thank you! I feel like there's so much fear mongering around pregnant women, especially early on. I just want to be able to make it through the day without getting dehydrated!

  • I just caught the ad on a commercial one evening and heard the same. I would just stick with the home remedies or see if there's something else out there. Not worth it!

    I did try home remedies for about a week and a half before I had to go to urgent care to get rehydrated. I feel like if it was dangerous doctors wouldn't prescribe it.
  • I was on it my whole pregnancy with daughter and am again. Can't function without it. I don't even worry about the study - I trust my doctor and my results. Besides - everything including potatoes are dangerous. Insert Sarcasm.
  • Zofran has been around for years. This is an extremely small group that it can cause this in. If you are that worried ask for Diclegis.
