Avoid using other medicines that make you sleepy (such as cold medicine, pain medication, muscle relaxers and medicine for seizures, depression or anxiety). They can add to sleepiness caused by Zofran.

There may be other drugs that can affect Zofran. Tell your doctor about all the prescription and over-the-counter medications you use. This includes vitamins, minerals, herbal products and drugs prescribed by other doctors. Do not start using a new medication without telling your doctor.
