Emstem Oral Drop belongs to a group of medications called ' antiemetics,' primarily used in the prevention of vomiting (being sick) and nausea (feeling sick) that usually occur after cancer chemotherapy, radiation treatment, or surgery. Nausea is an uneasy feeling in which a person feels an urge to vomit, while vomiting is the natural response of the body to expel the stomach contents from the mouth forcefully.

Emstem Oral Drop contains Ondanestron, which works by blocking the action of a chemical in the body (serotonin) responsible for causing nausea and vomiting. As a result, Emstem Oral Drop prevents the sensation of nausea and vomiting caused by conditions like surgery, cancer chemotherapy, pregnancy, or motion sickness.

Emstem Oral Drop is an anti-emetic medication primarily used to prevent and treat nausea and vomiting associated with conditions such as cancer chemotherapy, radiation treatment, and surgery.

Emstem Oral Drop contains Ondansetron, which works by inhibiting the release of serotonin, thereby preventing nausea and vomiting.
