Most if not all of us get the 3 day regimen of Emends followed by Zofran. My first treatment of Cisplatin was OK, my second was bad and my 3rd was almost impossible re the nausea and everything else it brought with it. I really didn't find anything that controlled my nausea but others have so like everything associated with this cancer and it's barbaric Tx, we can all respond differently.
