Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study Clinical Trial
Clinical comparison of the selective serotonin3 antagonists ramosetron and granisetron in treating acute chemotherapy-induced emesis, nausea and anorexia.
The efficacies of the selective 5-hydroxytryptamine3 (5-HT3) antagonists--ramosetron (0.3 mg) and granisetron (3 mg) in treating acute chemotherapy-induced digestive system dysunction were compared. ⋯ Ramosetron is more potent and longer-lasting than granisetron in preventing chemotherapy-induced digestive disturbances.
