Alex also got the hiccups and we just assumed it was the Emend as it is a common and well known side effect. Also sleeping pills and pain killers can do it too. The good news is, that once the drug wears off, so too do the hiccups. Karen If you talk to your doctor, maybe they can suggest an alternative?
