oxycodone of course is a potent narcotic pain medication. his doctor must feel that he needs this level of pain control ondansetron is used to control nausea and vomiting only. the"odt" just means oral disintegrating tablet (melts in your mouth). oxycodone can cause nausea but i have no idea if this is the reason his doctor prescribed it.
my step dad has perscription for both ondansetron odt and oxycodone. what kind of illness prompts the use of "odt"? . my step dad has gone to the hospital twice in a row now. my mom assures me there is not a problem but i am worried that she may be avoiding a more serious health issue. . i know that the "odt" medication is used for the effects of chemo but my step dad has never had cancer. he is however a disabled veteran. and while he is still constantly upbeat and healthy he did have a surgery but that was about last year in 2012. . are there any specific cases in which a doctor might prescribe both?
