How it works:
The way Omniset 2 mg Injection (Ondansetron) works is as follows:
Blocking serotonin (5-HT₃) receptors in the brain and stomach.
Serotonin is a molecule that makes you throw up.
Omniset stops nausea and vomiting signals from getting to the brain by preventing their function.
This makes it particularly effective in halting vomiting resulting from chemotherapy, anesthesia, or radiation therapy.

Medicine interaction:

Other medicines that affect serotonin, such as antidepressants like fluoxetine and sertraline, may raise the risk of serotonin syndrome.
Antiarrhythmic medicines (like amiodarone) can make your heart pulse irregularly.

Always tell your doctor about any other drugs or supplements you are taking.
