There are no known drug interactions between metoclopramide & ondansetron so they can be taken together. They are both second line anti-emetics for pregnancy vomiting however I would not combine the two unless you have been told to by your doctor. Metoclopramide works by speeding up your stomach and intestines in digesting food thus reducing nausea and vomiting for some people. Ondansetron works by blocking the serotonin that your body releases that can cause nausea and vomiting. So they both work differently to achieve the same outcome. If I were you, I would try and a day or so of one and if it doesn’t improve, try a day or so of the other. If neither seem to work, ask your doctor about combining the two for better effects. X
