Fosaprepitant for nausea in the emergency room
Treatments studied
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study tests if a drug called fosaprepitant can help people in the emergency room whose nausea and vomiting don't improve with standard medicine. It may be an option if you still feel sick 2 hours after your first nausea treatment.

This trial compares two anti-nausea medicines (fosaprepitant and metoclopramide) given in the emergency room to see which works better for adults with nausea or vomiting. If you qualify, you would receive one of the study medications and have follow-up calls to check how you're feeling.
This study tests whether the combination of olanzapine and metoclopramide can prevent nausea and vomiting caused by strong painkillers (opioids) in people with advanced cancer. If you are starting a strong opioid for pain and have not had nausea or vomiting recently, this study may be for you.
This trial studies whether palonosetron helps prevent nausea and vomiting caused by chemotherapy that has a moderate risk of vomiting. It may help you feel more comfortable during chemo and avoid treatment interruptions from severe nausea.
This trial tests a medicine called IV NEPA (fosnetupitant/palonosetron) to prevent nausea and vomiting in children who are receiving strong chemotherapy. Patients will receive at least one cycle of chemotherapy that is highly likely to cause these side effects.
This Phase 3 trial tests whether ondansetron (a medicine used to reduce nausea and vomiting) works better than a placebo, along with usual care, for adults with acute gastroenteritis. It also checks how safe ondansetron is in this setting, especially for the heart rhythm and other side effects.
This study tests if two medicines given together, fosaprepitant and palonosetron, can prevent nausea and vomiting caused by strong chemotherapy given over several days. It's for people who have never had chemo before and are about to start a multi-day treatment for a solid tumor.
