NUMIT INJ. 2 ML

Product Description:

NUMIT 2ML Injection contains Ondansetron, a selective serotonin (5-HT3) antagonist used to prevent nausea and vomiting. It is widely used after surgical procedures, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy to manage treatment-induced nausea. It is given by IV or IM route by a healthcare professional.

Key Benefits:

• Effectively prevents and controls nausea and vomiting caused by surgery and cancer treatment
• Rapid onset of action when given intravenously
• Well tolerated by most patients including those undergoing chemotherapy
• Reduces the need for additional antiemetic medications in hospital settings

How It Works:

Ondansetron blocks serotonin receptors (5-HT3) found in the gut and the vomiting centre of the brain. By preventing serotonin from triggering these receptors, it stops the signals that cause nausea and vomiting. This makes it particularly effective in chemotherapy-induced nausea where serotonin release is the primary trigger.

• Administer only as prescribed by your doctor ? dose depends on the indication and patient age
• Use at the right time ? for prevention of post-operative nausea, it is often given before surgery ends
