Q; Zofran (Ondansetron Hydrochloride) is relatively a safe medicine for symptomatic treatment for nausea but it may cause which electrolyte abnormality ?



A: Zofran may cause hypokalemia.

On side note, this may be of interest to know that data support the efficacy of this drug in the prevention of nausea and vomiting rather in the rescue of nausea and vomiting !!
