Suggest Alternative For Zofran To Treat Nausea In A Bladder Cancer Survivor

My husband had bladder cancer & his bladder has been removed. He has a bacterial infection now and .Is taking Bactria along with Augmenting 1 tablet each twice a day. His problem is severe nause. He’s not drinking or eating very much at all. He’s taking zofran tablets for nausea but they do not help him at all. What you recommend for him to take for the awful nausea in place of a tablet?

Hi,

If zoffran is not working for him then I would advise you can give him Metoclopramide 10 mg x 1 tablet thrice daily.
Also you can give him prednisolone 5 mg x 1 tablet daily for 5 days.
I hope this will help.

Wishing him good health

Regards.
