Antiemetic / antivertigo agents
What are Antiemetic / antivertigo agents?
Cerebral cortex activates vomiting from smell, thought and so on. Gastrointestinal tract has serotonin (5-HT3) receptors, which are affected by chemotherapeutic drugs.
Different classes of drugs work on different receptors and act as antiemetics and antivertigo agents.
An antivertigo agent is a type of medication that is used to reduce symptoms such as nystagmus, dizziness, vomiting, and postural imbalance by modulating the molecular effectors in the vestibular sensory network to control sensory information related to vertigo episodes.
