Medicinal Benefits

Aedion 8 Tablet DT belongs to a group of medications called anti-emetics used to prevent nausea and vomiting associated with conditions like cancer chemotherapy, radiotherapy, surgery, pregnancy and motion sickness in adults and children above 4 years of age. When serotonin level increases in the blood, it stimulates the CTZ receptor (chemoreceptor trigger zone) located in the brain responsible for controlling nausea and vomiting. Aedion 8 Tablet DT acts by inhibiting the release of this serotonin, thereby preventing nausea and vomiting.
