Active clinical trials for "Vomiting"

Double-blind, randomised, parallel-group, placebo-controlled, adaptive, seamless, dose-selecting study to compare the efficacy of APD421 to placebo as treatment of established PONV, in patients who have not had prior PONV prophylaxis.

This study aims to prove that at a dose of 1 mg Haloperidol possesses a high success rate in controlling established postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) in the first 24 hours following administration similar to the standard of care ondansetron 4 mg.

This is a randomized, controlled cross-over trial. The hypothesis of this study is that the differences in manual acupuncture manipulation can impact clinical effect though the acupuncturists follow the same needling regimen. In this study, acupuncturist 1 (clinical experience >15 years) and acupuncturist 2 (<5 years) will give treatments to cancer patients receiving cisplatin chemotherapy (n=36) for at least two continuous cycles, once per day, 5 days per cycle. Acupuncturist 1 determines all the treatment regimens (selection of acupoints and methods of needling manipulation, needle retention time). Randomly, half of the patients will receive treatments from acupuncturist 1 in the first treatment cycle and from acupuncturist 2 in the second cycle; while the other half will be treated in other way round. There is a washout period (21 days) between two cycles. The needling manipulation of two acupuncturists will be measured objectively during treatments. The clinical effect will be measured by the control of vomiting and nausea during and after chemotherapy treatments.

The objectives of this study are to compare the occurrence and severity of opioid-induced nausea and vomiting (OINV) associated with CL-108 to Norco®, and to demonstrate the efficacy of CL-108 when compared to placebo for the relief of moderate to severe pain In patients with moderate to severe pain following bunionectomy (osteotomy with fixation of the head of the first metatarsal bone).

The purpose of this study is to give children with gastroenteritis with persistent vomiting flavored intravenous ondansetron orally. The investigators test the palatability of the drug and check the serum level of ondansetron at 4 hours .

Vertigo complaint is one of the common cause of patients who applied to emergency services. Patients who have applied to emergency services with vertigo complaint mostly have nausea as an additionally symptom to this complaint and anti-emetic agents can be used in their treatments very often. The investigators purpose is to investigate the advantages of Dimenhydrinate and metoclopramide to each other in the treatment of vertigo and the vertigo accompanied by nausea

Upto 80% of all pregnant women experience some form of nausea and vomiting (NVP) during their pregnancy. Hyperemesis gravidarum, a more severe form of NVP affects approximately 0.3- 2.0% of pregnancies and is the commonest indication for admission to hospital in the first half of pregnancy and second only to preterm labor as a cause of hospitalization overall. According to the Hyperemesis Education and Research Foundation, conservative estimates indicate that HG can cost a minimum of $200 million annually in house hospitalizations in the United States of America. The investigators aim to conduct a randomized controlled trial to test the hypothesis that the availability of day care services for the initial treatment of NVP reduces the mean duration of stay in hospital by 1 day and results in significantly greater patient satisfaction compared with standard inpatient management.

This 5-part study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of two formulations of MK-0517 (with and without polysorbate 80) and aprepitant in healthy adults. Parts I to IV of this study will examine different doses of MK-0517 as well as two different formulations of MK-0517 (with and without polysorbate 80). Part V of the study will compare single doses of intravenous non-PS80 MK-0517 to oral 125-mg capsule of aprepitant. The primary hypothesis for Part V of the study is that a single intravenous dose of 100-mg or 115-mg MK-0517 is area under the plasma-time curve (AUC) equivalent to that of the 125-mg oral aprepitant capsule in young healthy participants.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether Bisacodyl, 5 mg usage decreases the incidence of nausea and abdominal pain after surgery, and also decreases the number of hospitalization days.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether Diclectin® (doxylamine succinate USP 10 mg and pyridoxine HCl 10 mg) is more effective at controlling the nausea and vomiting of pregnancy than a placebo.
