Zofran melt (ondansetron)

How can this medicine affect other medicines?

It is important to tell your doctor or pharmacist what medicines you are already taking, including those bought without a prescription and herbal medicines, before you start treatment with this medicine. Similarly, check with your doctor or pharmacist before taking any new medicines while taking this one, to ensure that the combination is safe.

The following medicines may increase the removal of ondansetron from the body and could therefore make it less effective:

- carbamazepine
- phenytoin
- rifampicin.

Small studies suggest that ondansetron may reduce the painkilling effect of tramadol.
