In this episode we briefly discuss the main mechanisms for nausea, then chat about the main anti-nausea drugs used in hospitals, including Ondansetron and Metoclopramide. We also discuss the drug classes commonly used for different types of nausea (yes, there are different types!), as well as some novel treatments for nausea in the emergency department (turns out alcohol swabs aren't just good at disinfecting).
