Zofran and enema

Hi there, Make sure to check with your OB on what type of enema is okay for pregnant women. I checked into using that when I was on Zofran, but was told some are okay and some can cause contractions and should not be used. Hope you are feeling better. When I stopped taking the Zofran and decided I would cope with being sick for the rest of the pregnancy, I changed my pre-natals and also went to acupuncture for the nausea (someone who was used to working with pregnant people) and between the two I felt better.

I am about 8 weeks pregnant and was prescribed Zofran by my ob/gyn for severe nausea. I bragged on the drug after the 1st dose because I felt wonderful. I was prescribed every 8 hours as needed. The first pill I took on a Tuesday night, the second on Thursday night when I developed severe motion sickness, the third on Friday (by then I could not stand to move around). By Monday of the next week I felt as if I was going to explode. I was extremely miserable. I realized that I felt worse after the Zofran because of severe constipation. I felt as if everything I had eaten for the last week was just sitting in my stomach. I had nausea, dizziness, headaches, indigestion w/reflux, excessive gas and bloating, and a horrible taste in my mouth. I stopped taking the Zofran and used an enema and prune juice to clear my system. Some how, compare to how the Zofran made me feel the nausea doesn't seem so bad!
