ONDEM MD 4MG TABLET 10'S

How ONDEM MD 4MG TABLET 10'S Works

• Serotonin (5-HT3) receptors in the gut and in a part of the brain that controls vomiting can trigger the vomiting reflex when stimulated, particularly during chemotherapy, radiotherapy or after surgery.
• Ondansetron selectively blocks these serotonin receptors, reducing the signals that lead to nausea and vomiting. Because it acts on this specific pathway, it is particularly effective for nausea and vomiting linked to these treatments, though it has little effect on nausea caused by motion sickness, which involves a different pathway.

Headache, constipation and a feeling of warmth or flushing are the most commonly reported effects. Dizziness and fatigue have also been reported. A fast or irregular heartbeat, chest discomfort, severe dizziness or fainting need immediate medical attention, since ondansetron can rarely affect the heart's electrical rhythm (QT prolongation). Signs of a severe allergic reaction also need immediate medical attention.
