Hello
Don't be desperate , do these measures ;
Take ofloxacin as desired by your doctor but take ANTACID ( if it contains oxetacaine , good ) 4 T S F 2-3 hours before your dose ( ofloxacin) .
You can take antacid 2-3 hours morning and evening dose.
In similar way take pantaloc-D with antacid and your dose will adjust.
One more option is these take ondansetrone 2-3 hours before ofloxacin dose.
Still one more option get in INTRAVENOUS dosage of ofloxacin and you will not get any nausea and vomiting.
Hope this will help you.
