Active clinical trials for "Vomiting"

The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of ramosetron plus dexamethasone injection with granisetron plus dexamethasone injection for the prevention of chemotherapy-induced vomiting and nausea.

This is a Phase III trial designed to demonstrate that casopitant (GW679769) plus dexamethasone and ondansetron is more effective in the prevention of vomiting than dexamethasone and ondansetron alone following the administration of moderately emetogenic chemotherapy.

The purpose of this study will be to determine whether an intravenous dose of dimenhydrinate (also known as Gravol), given before the induction of spinal anesthesia, will decrease the incidence of intraoperative nausea and vomiting in patients undergoing Cesarean delivery. This medication is commonly given during and after the surgery if required, but it is not known whether a preventative dose will decrease the overall incidence of these side effects.

Nausea and vomiting is a common complaint in the emergency department. Treatment is important for many reasons. In addition to patient comfort, there are adverse effects secondary to vomiting such as dehydration, metabolic alkalosis, Mallory-Weiss tears, and aspiration. Two mediations common used for nausea in ED patients include Ondanesetron and Metoclopramide.

This study was designed to assess the safety and efficacy of an investigational agent administered in addition to a standard anti-emetic regimen for the treatment of chemotherapy induced nausea and vomiting.

This A Three-Part Drug-Drug Interaction Study To Evaluate Effects of Casopitant On Dolasetron, Granisetron or Rosiglitazone When Co-Administered in Healthy Adults

This study will examine what the body does while taking GW679769 alone and together with rifampin in healthy adult subjects.

This study aim to find out the effectiveness of 1 mg intravenous haloperidol compared to 5 mg intravenous dexamethasone to prevent the occurrence of nausea and vomiting also as pain control in adult patients after laparoscopic surgery.

The purpose of CLCT-006, a multi-center open-label study, is to evaluate the safety of CL-108 (hydrocodone 7.5 mg/APAP 325 mg, promethazine 12.5 mg) for the treatment of moderate to severe acute pain ("flare") associated with osteoarthritis of the knee or hip under actual conditions of use.

Background/Purpose of the Study Doxycycline is an antibiotic used for infection prevention before surgical pregnancy termination, and a side effect of it is nausea/vomiting. The investigators' study explores whether or not taking the anti-emetic ondansetron prior to doxycycline decreases rates of nausea/vomiting. Patients enrolled in the investigators' study will take either ondansetron or a placebo before they take doxycycline to see if ondansetron decreases their nausea/vomiting. Reducing nausea/vomiting may prevent more infections, and decrease the rates of general anesthesia, patient risks and hospital costs. Decreasing nausea/vomiting will also improve patient experience. Study Design This will be a randomized controlled trial. Data will be collected by administrating surveys and a log where patients will record the timing of their medications and episodes of nausea/vomiting. The primary outcome is nausea/vomiting after taking the anti-emetic/placebo and doxycycline. 400 eligible patients will be enrolled over two years, 200 in the intervention group and 200 in the placebo group. Rationale for Study Design A randomized controlled trial will be used to determine the effects of the anti-emetic ondansetron on rates of nausea/vomiting. Subject Characteristics Patients will be pregnant females, 18-45 years old, who are undergoing surgical termination of pregnancy. Design 1-2 days before the procedure, patients will complete a demographic questionnaire and a survey about symptoms of nausea/vomiting. They will use a log to record symptoms they experience between taking the anti-emetic/placebo and when they present for their procedure. When patients come to the hospital, they will fill out a repeat survey rating their nausea/vomiting.
