Description
Vomishunt-MD 4 Tablet is an antiemetic medicine manufactured by Cipla Ltd. It contains Ondansetron 4mg, a 5-HT3 receptor antagonist widely used for the prevention and treatment of nausea and vomiting.
The MD (Mouth Dissolving) tablet formulation allows the medicine to dissolve quickly in the mouth without the need for water, making it convenient for patients who have difficulty swallowing tablets or are actively vomiting.
