Description
Emeset Tablet is a medicine made by Cipla Limited. It is used to prevent and control nausea and vomiting, especially in people undergoing chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or surgery. The main ingredient, ondansetron, works by blocking the action of serotonin, a natural chemical in the body that can trigger nausea and vomiting. This helps reduce the feeling of sickness and prevents the urge to vomit.
You should take the Emeset Tablet exactly as your doctor prescribes. It can be taken with or without food, and it is best to swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water. Do not take more or less than the recommended dose, and do not stop taking it without consulting your doctor. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember, unless it's almost time for the next dose.
Some people may experience side effects, such as constipation, headache, or hiccups, while taking Emeset Tablet. These side effects are usually mild and go away on their own. However, if they become bothersome or persist for an extended period, you should consult your doctor. Serious side effects are rare, but it’s always a good idea to let your healthcare provider know how you're feeling during treatment.
Before starting this medicine, inform your doctor about your complete medical history and any other medications, supplements, or herbal products you are taking. Also, let them know if you have been losing fluids, are dehydrated, or have a salt imbalance, as these conditions can affect how the medicine works and may increase the risk of side effects.
To help manage nausea better, try eating small, healthy snacks instead of large meals, and sip water throughout the day to stay hydrated. Other medicines with the same active ingredient as Emeset Tablet include Ondem 4 mg Tablet, Zofer 4 mg Tablet, and Ondet 4 mg Tablet. However, you should only take the one your doctor has prescribed for you.
