A series of new substituted benzamides has been synthesized and evaluated for dopamine antagonist activity and for antagonism of cisplatin-induced emesis in the dog and in the ferret. It was found that modification of the 2-methoxy substituent of metoclopramide was detrimental to dopaminergic D2
None of the available antiemetics is entirely effective, perhaps because most of them act through the blockade of one receptor. There is a possibility that a combination of antiemetics with different sites of activity would be more effective than one drug alone for prophylaxis against postoperative
Breast cancer surgery performed under general anesthesia is associated with a high incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV). A number of approaches are available for the management of PONV after breast cancer surgery. First, the risk factors related to patient characteristics, surgical
Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) are distressing and frequent adverse events of anesthesia and surgery, with a relatively high incidence after laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Numerous antiemetics have been studied for the prevention and treatment of PONV in patients scheduled for laparoscopic
The common and distressing complications of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) are the main concern of 40-70% of patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC). The first step in preventing PONV after LC is to reduce the risk factors involving patient characteristics, surgical
1. The aim of this study is to review the mechanisms implicated in nausea and vomiting and the treatment of these symptoms. 2. Metoclopramide, a benzamide, is the drug most frequently used to alleviate or abolish the majority of nausea and vomiting of different origin. Domperidone, which scarcely
OBJECTIVE
To review the emetic potential of chemotherapeutic agents and the specific factors that may help to identify patients who are most vulnerable to nausea and vomiting following chemotherapy. To review the classes of antiemetic drugs that effectively control nausea and vomiting associated
At the present time 5-HT3 antagonists in combination with corticosteroids represent the best prophylaxis and treatment of acute vomiting and nausea in highly emetogenic cancer chemotherapy. However, 24 h after chemotherapy 5-HT3 antagonists are no longer superior to benzamides for prevention of
We investigated the association between fluvoxamine and nausea from various viewpoints. The incidence of nausea induced by fluvoxamine was 29% (12/41). Plasma 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (p5-HIAA) levels after fluvoxamine administration were significantly higher in patients with nausea (6.6+/-3.4
When children experience nausea and vomiting (N/V) as side effects of anesthesia or chemotherapy, a major role for nurses is to promote comfort. In addition to the discomfort of N/V in children, other detrimental effects include dehydration, weight loss, fluid and electrolyte imbalance, and
Dazopride, a substituted benzamide structurally related to metoclopramide, is a potent gastric prokinetic agent that prevents cisplatin-induced emesis in animals. Unlike metoclopramide, dazopride has no effect on dopamine receptors and therefore should not produce extrapyramidal side effects. In
Benzamide riboside (BR), a synthetic C-nucleoside, acts as a strong growth inhibitor of cancer cells in vitro and in vivo. BR, like TR and related nucleoside prodrugs, act by anabolism to NAD analogs. These analogs selectively inhibit IMPDH, leading to depletion of cellular GTP, growth cessation,
Metoclopramide, a benzamide substitute, is used frequently as an antiemetic drug. Sulpiride, another benzamide substitute, was investigated and found to be safe and effective in a handful of studies involving only oncologic or other severely symptomatic patients. In this investigation the authors
In spite of improvements in anesthesia techniques, the 'big little problem' of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) still exists. PONV can prolong recovery room stay and hospitalization, and is one of the most common causes of hospital readmission after day surgery. While there is little
