Hello ladies! have any of you been prescribed Zofran for nausea in pregnancy? I've heard it can be related to some birth defects. have any of you had this or have any opinions on it? I don't think I'll be using it just want some opinions. Tia!

There is no scientific backed data linking Zofran to medical defects. The lawsuits that are currently out right now will take years to settle as they have to provide legitimately researched backed evidence that there is a linkage. I took Zofran for 3 months with my twins and a month with my baby now. My nausea put me in the hospital for severe dehydration and once I was given that, I was able to finally eat and put on weight.
I took magnesium for my morning sickness. the Dr tried to give me zofran in my IV without my consent on Sat. I freaked out. told him there was no way that he can give me fluids and I'd wait out the virus
I started taking it in my first trimester because I was so sick. I lost a total of 20 pounds my first trimester and if it wouldn't have been for the zofran I probably would have lost more. Baby girl is growing just fine and we haven't had any negative side effects
I didn't have any other option but to take it after morning sickness hit. It had gotten so bad I was losing almost 5 to 10 lbs a week. So far it hasn't had any negative effects. Started taking it @ close to 9 weeks.
they make these ginger "nausea" drops & suckers you can get at most natural food stores that will help.
The other is probably promethazine and that stuff is seriously strong. I have it a low dose and can only take a quarter of it but it still knocks me out. Ginger does help, you can get powder ginger in with the spices and put a dab under your tongue for 30 secs and swallow with a drink, ginger ale, I get these ginger candies from Rowe's/albertsons they are amazing. I'm on zofran but only take when necessary.
i used it my whole first trimester and there is nothing wrong with my baby girl:)
peppermint helped with me and now when I get like an upset stomach to where I feel like I'ma throw up I take a tums and it goes away.
I thoughts so too thanks @ladypsmama (: what do you do with ginger?
There are many natural remedies you can take, ginger is really good for it too. There is another medication they can perscribe with no links to birth defects but i forgot the name of it. Zofran is definitely not worth the risk though mama.
thank you ladies!
