Always follow your doctor’s instructions. Dosage depends on your condition and age. Typical adult dosages for nausea and vomiting range from 4 mg to 8 mg every 8 hours, up to a maximum of 24 mg daily. For postoperative nausea and vomiting, a higher initial dose may be given.
Children’s dosages are weight-based. Your doctor will calculate the appropriate dose for your child. Oral disintegrating tablets are convenient for both adults and children who struggle with swallowing pills. These tablets dissolve quickly on the tongue.
For intravenous (IV) administration, the dose and frequency vary. Healthcare professionals administer IV Zofran in a hospital or clinic setting. They carefully monitor the patient for any adverse reactions.
Missed doses should be taken as soon as you remember, unless it’s almost time for the next dose. Do not double the dose to catch up. If you consistently forget doses, discuss this with your doctor.
Store Zofran tablets at room temperature, away from moisture and heat. Protect the medication from light. Always check the expiration date before using.
This information is for guidance only. Consult your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice and to address any concerns about Zofran use.
