• Ondansetron (Zofran) is the most significant drug used to control nausea and vomiting caused by intensive
chemotherapy and radiotherapy . It may be needed when you are receiving "highest potential" chemotherapy
drugs or when you cannot get relief with other antinausea agents. It is often given with Decadron IV. It
suppresses vomiting in 60 to 80 percent of patients and is even more effective in combination with other
antinausea drugs.
