Ondansetron

Nauseous? You won't be for long if you take ondansetron.

My wife has been on 8mg twice daily (oral dissolving and tabular at different times) + domperidone and it’s still not altered a chronic nausea that started at pregnancy. Little ones second birthday in a week, not a day without throwing up within minutes of eating or drinking anything at all - paramedics called it a starvation diet.

Not that there’s anything you can do, just getting increasingly desperate and throwing this out there in case anyone has anything to relate to this.

Super glad it’s working for you though - it’s a wonder drug for so many people!

Sorry it's not working for her! I think pregnancy might be a special type of nausea that's a little harder to treat.... I know ondansetron is commonly given to cancer patients and it's enough for many of them and not enough for others. For those of us with more mundane nausea, it really is a miracle drug.

I hope she find something that helps her or she gets past the nausea stage soon. And congratulations on the upcoming family addition.

Pregnancy is a beast! We’re lucky he’s already with us, almost turning 2! Still sick however, curiously for a few minutes immediately after birth she felt 100% better but that came back permanently the instant she started to breastfeed the first time.

Thanks for your well wishes! Best to you.
