MedPage Today Senior Writer. TORONTO, April 20 - A single oral dose of the antiemetic Zofran (ondansetron) can reduce vomiting by more than half and facilitate oral rehydration in children with gastroenteritis, according to pediatric emergency researchers.herefore it may be useful therapy in an emergency department for children with vomiting and mild-to-moderate dehydration as a result of gastroenteritis, they concluded. This study was supported by grants from the National Institutes of Health and GlaxoSmithKline, Zofran's maker.
Some doctors have prescribed Zofran off-label to treat nausea and vomiting caused by morning sickness in pregnant women, though the drug has never been approved for this use. Zofran blocks serotonin, a natural substance in the brain that may contribute to nausea and vomiting. It belongs to a class of drugs called serotonin 5-HT3 receptor antagonists. These drugs are antiemetics, meaning they block nausea and vomiting.
