Jemvorm Syrup contains Ondansetron 2 mg. It comes in a pack of 30ml.

The way Jemvorm acts is by blocking serotonin 5-HT3 receptors, which are present on the vagal nerve terminals of the gut and in the chemoreceptor trigger zone of the brain. Serotonin released from the intestine during cancer treatment may stimulate these receptors and set off the vomiting reflex. By holding these receptors closed, the syrup helps keep the reflex from starting. The action may be central, peripheral, or both.

Must not be used if you are allergic to ondansetron or any part of the syrup. Must not be used together with apomorphine, as this can cause a severe drop in blood pressure and loss of consciousness. Ondansetron should be avoided in patients with congenital long QT syndrome. Check with a doctor first if you have electrolyte abnormalities, cardiac failure or arrhythmias, or if you are taking other QT-prolonging or serotonergic medicines; ECG monitoring may be needed. Check with a doctor first after abdominal surgery or if bowel movements have slowed, as ondansetron may hide a progressing ileus or gastric distension.
