Zuplenz

Have you been suffering from migraines and just resigned yourself to them as a normal part of your life? The good news is that there is a way to find relief. While Zuplenz is typically prescribed to patients who experience frequent nausea as a result of cancer treatments or surgery, it can also help prevent migraines or reduce their symptoms by blocking serotonin.

Zuplenz is a common prescription, meaning it's available at most pharmacies, and if you don't have insurance, that's okay too. At Nurx, we want to make high-quality healthcare more accessible and affordable for everyone, so our prices are reasonable and won't break the bank. If you don't have a general practitioner, Nurx can still help get you the medication you need to feel better fast.

If you do have insurance, great! We'll work with your insurance to get your claim processed for your prescription medication. Contact us to get information on pricing so that you know exactly what to expect.

Before you take Zuplenz, let your doctor know about any allergies you have, especially if you're allergic to the active ingredient, Ondansetron. Your doctor needs to know about your allergies because Zuplenz may contain inactive ingredients that could cause an allergic reaction.

You should also tell your doctor if you have experienced an irregular heartbeat, stomach or intestinal problems, or heart problems such as a QT prolongation in the EKG or if anyone in your family has had a sudden cardiac death. If you have low potassium or magnesium in your blood, you may be at an increased risk for QT prolongation, especially if you are on a diuretic.

Because Zuplenz may make you dizzy or drowsy, refrain from driving or using heavy machinery until you know how the medication affects you. Alcohol can increase the effects of Zuplenz, so avoid alcoholic beverages while on this drug.

Let your doctor know if you're pregnant or breastfeeding. Zuplenz may not be considered safe for your particular situation, or your doctor may want to give you a smaller dosage instead.

Any medication can bring about side effects. It's essential to be aware of the possible side effects so that you know what's common versus what's a cause for concern. The great news about Zuplenz, and the reason we love this medication, is that there aren't many serious side effects.

The most common side effects of Zuplenz and its generic equivalent include:

Dizziness.

Tiredness.

Constipation.

Lightheadedness.

Drowsiness.

There are also some more serious but less likely side effects, such as:

Abdominal pain.

Muscle spasms.

Muscle stiffness.

Fainting.

Chest pain.

Irregular heartbeat, including a faster or slower than normal heartbeat.

Hallucinations.

Fever with no known origin.

Severe diarrhea.

Loss of coordination.

Twitching muscles.

If you experience any of these side effects, reach out to your doctor right away.

You may not know you're allergic to this medication until you start developing an allergic reaction. Be on the lookout for swelling of the lips, tongue, or throat, hives, a rash, difficulty breathing, severe dizziness, or itching in or around your mouth.

Like other drugs, Zuplenz can interact with other medications, so it's important to discuss any medications you're taking with your doctor. This includes all other prescriptions, over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, supplements, and herbs. Depending on what you're taking, you may have an increased risk for more serious side effects.

Make sure your doctor knows if you are taking apomorphine, tramadol, diuretics, or any drugs that have the potential of affecting your heart rhythm. Because Zuplenz affects your serotonin levels, it's also important to know if any of your medications increase serotonin. When you're on more than one medication that does this, you can experience serotonin syndrome or toxicity. Specific drugs that increase serotonin levels include St. John's wort, the street drug MDMA, and some antidepressants or SSRIs.
