Overview Ondem Syrup

PediaNausea Syrup is a pediatric medication used to alleviate nausea and vomiting. Its primary application is managing nausea and vomiting related to surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and gastrointestinal infections. It's also effective for vomiting induced by medications like analgesics. PediaNausea Syrup can be administered before or after meals. For chemotherapy-induced vomiting, give the syrup 30 minutes prior to treatment. Administer it 1-2 hours before radiation therapy and 1 hour before surgery to prevent post-procedure vomiting. If your child vomits the medication within 30 minutes, soothe them and repeat the dose; however, avoid doubling the dose if it's near the scheduled time for the next dose. PediaNausea Syrup may cause temporary side effects like headache, constipation, diarrhea, and tiredness. These usually resolve as your child adjusts to the medication. If side effects persist or worsen, consult your physician immediately. Disclose all medications your child is taking, including pain relievers, antibiotics, and antidepressants. Also, inform the doctor of any pre-existing liver or kidney issues, gastrointestinal obstructions, heart conditions, or allergies to medications, ingredients, or foods. This information is crucial for accurate dosage and comprehensive treatment planning.

How Ondem Syrup works:

Before procedures like radiotherapy, chemotherapy, abdominal surgery, or other major operations, dying cells release serotonin into the bloodstream. This serotonin triggers the body's vomiting reflex in your child. Administering Ondem Syrup beforehand counteracts serotonin's effect on the brain's emetic centers, thus preventing nausea and vomiting.
