About
Granitero 3mg Injection is classified as a 5-HT3 receptor antagonist, commonly known as an antiemetic. It contains Granisetron as the active ingredient and is used to prevent and treat nausea and vomiting caused by chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or surgery. Nausea involves a queasy feeling in the stomach with an urge to vomit, while vomiting is the forceful emptying of stomach contents through the mouth.
Common side effects of Granitero 3mg Injection may include headache, constipation, diarrhea, insomnia, and altered liver function tests. These effects do not occur in everyone and can vary from person to person. Inform your doctor if any of these symptoms are persistent or bothersome.
Before starting treatment, notify your healthcare provider if you are allergic to Granitero 3mg or any of its components. You should also inform your doctor if you have any heart conditions or bowel movement issues. Be aware of a rare but serious risk known as serotonin syndrome, which may occur when Granitero is used with certain other medications like duloxetine or fluvoxamine. Always share a full list of your current medications with your doctor before starting treatment.
