What is zofran ondansetron ?
zofran ondansetron Tablet is an antiemetic medicine commonly used to control nausea and vomiting due to certain medical conditions like stomach upset. It is also used to prevent nausea and vomiting caused due to any surgery, cancer drug therapy, or radiotherapy.
The active ingredient in Zofran is an antiemetic (anti-nausea) drug called ondansetron hydrochloride dihydrate. As a 5-HT3 receptor antagonist, ondansetron blocks the ability of a chemical in the brain called serotonin to pass signals between nerve cells. Serotonin is especially important in the area of the brain that controls nausea and vomiting, the “chemoreceptor trigger zone.” By blocking serotonin, Zofran partly reduces the brain’s nausea reflex. Zofran is taken as a tablet with or without food.
