I asked what the chemo folks at Hopkins use pre-treatment and they use Anzemet -- OK, even more expensive than Zofran but it lasts 24 hours (8 for Zofran), Might want to ask about it.
Barry uses one Zofran before each amiphostine shot and they are still working for that after two weeks.
The also do acupuncture at Hopkins for chemo nausea and they may also at Sloan --
