I took Zofran with DS and now this LO. If I didn't, I wouldn't even be sitting right now. Not even B6 and Unisom helped this time.
I had seen the commercials and spoke in depth with my OB about this. She swore to me that the entire "lawsuit" was debunked and proven untrue. Zofran is actually one of THE safest anti-nausea's in pregnancy.
After the lawsuits against the manufacture last year, which was only 200 out of millions of women, OBs did initially dial back on Zofran but after extensive research most notably from the UCLA Department of Medicine who published their findings in the journal Reproductive Toxicology found that:
"Extensive research did not find an association between the drug and birth defects. Instead, it found evidence suggesting that women who took Zofran were less likely to have a miscarriage or a stillbirth.
In pregnant women, five heart defects and one cleft palate were reported among 952 infants whose mothers had extreme morning sickness and took Zofran. Eight heart defects and two cleft palates were reported among the 1,286 infants born to women who did not have extreme morning sickness and were not exposed to Zofran."
I know how scary it is to see warnings like that especially after but Zofran is proven quite safe.
