Yes, ondansetron (Zofran) and other antiemetic medications are safe to take alongside semaglutide and can ease nausea during your adjustment period
Finally, the FLOW trial may shed further light on the potential mechanisms involved on how GLP-1 receptor agonism could alter renal physiology, combined with future mechanistic studies that aim to find proof for the effects of GLP-1 receptor agonists on the renal risk factors/pathophysiological mechanisms related to DKD as summarized in this review
In short, there is no single timeline for how long semaglutide takes to work
