Drug Details
Aprepitant is a medication used in combination with other drugs to prevent nausea and vomiting associated with chemotherapy treatment. It functions by blocking a natural substance in the body known as substance P/neurokinin 1, which is responsible for inducing vomiting. Aprepitant is particularly beneficial for both immediate and delayed nausea and vomiting due to chemotherapy. It is usually administered one hour before chemotherapy sessions over the course of three days. Available in capsule form for individuals aged 12 and older, and as an oral solution for adults who have difficulty swallowing and younger children, aprepitant is typically used alongside dexamethasone and a serotonin antagonist like ondansetron (Zofran). Common side effects may include tiredness and diarrhea. It is important to consult with your healthcare provider to ensure the safe and effective use of this medication. Note that aprepitant is not effective for treating nausea or vomiting that has already begun.

Emend (aprepitant) and Zofran (ondansetron) are both medications used to prevent nausea and vomiting, but they work in different ways and are used in different contexts. Emend is a neurokinin-1 (NK1) receptor antagonist, often used in combination with other medications to prevent nausea and vomiting caused by chemotherapy. Zofran, on the other hand, is a serotonin 5-HT3 receptor antagonist, commonly used to prevent nausea and vomiting associated with chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and surgery. The choice between the two depends on the specific clinical situation and the underlying cause of the nausea and vomiting.
