We conducted a prospective study to evaluate the anti-emetic effect of cisplatin-induced nausea and vomiting with intravenous (i.v.) ondansetron plus i.v. dexamethasone. ⋯ These results indicate that i.v. ondansetron plus i.v. dexamethasone is a feasible anti-emetic therapy in an inpatient setting. I.v. ondansetron plus i.v. dexamethasone is highly effective in preventing acute cisplatin-induced nausea and vomiting.
