Descripción

Aprepitant is a drug that is used as an anti-emetic to prevent nausea and vomiting caused by chemotherapy. It is a peptide that binds to the receptor NK1 in the brain, which blocks the action of substance P, a neurotransmitter that causes nausea. Aprepitant also blocks the action of serotonin and dopamine, which are neurotransmitters involved in nausea and vomiting. Aprepitant has been shown to be effective against both cisplatin-induced and radiation-induced nausea. It has also been shown to be effective against nausea caused by surgery or viral illness. Aprepitant is available for injectable use only and should not be taken with food or grapefruit juice as it may lead to adverse effects such as headache, dizziness, or constipation.
