Recent Zofran Side Effects

This medication has been very effective for me, who suffers from nausea on a frequent basis and does not know yet for a 100% cause of it. It is possibly anxiety.
Anyway, one side effect this medication causes for me is constipation. But a lot of different medications cause that. If you are constipated, start taking fish oil. It makes stools softer and more regular.
Another side effect is drowsiness but that goes away after a while of taking the medication.

Stop taking drugs while pregnant!! Here, in the US, they kill our babies by making then sick through these drugs. In old times women were not allowed to take prescribed drugs while pregnant. There's a nutrition issue that can help you diminish nausea. But please, stop injuring our babies and make pharmaceutical industry get richer. They don't care about your health, but their own pockets. Please, be smart, and use old-fashioned recipes of herbs combined with nutrition. Trust me, it will help you keep your and your babies' health well. God bless.

I took Zofran after a terrible Migraine with severe vomiting. I was given it in the hospital and then I was on it for about 4 days. I was constipated the whole time but didn't realize it was a side effect. Now over two weeks later I'm still constipated and I've been off the Zofran for the 1 1/2 weeks. I have to take this Senna-gen lax every evening in order to go to the bathroom. If I don't take the Senna then I don't go. I've tried going off it for 2 days at a time. I get a great vegetarian diet...which is full of fiber. I'm very unhappy that I still have constipation. In fact, my doctor said that I have Irritable Bowel Syndrome now. Please help if you have any feedback. L

Zofran Chemical Information
ondansetron hydrochloride - The hydrochloride salt of the racemic form of ondansetron, a carbazole derivative and a selective, competitive serotonin 5-HT3 receptor antagonist with antiemetic properties. Although its mechanism of action has not been fully characterized, ondansetron appears to competitively block the action of serotonin at 5HT3 receptors peripherally in the gastrointestinal tract as well as centrally in the area postrema of the CNS (the chemoreceptor trigger zone for vomiting), resulting in suppression of chemotherapy- and radiotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting.
