What is the anti nausea add-on?
It is a prescription medicine. It blocks the “get sick” signal between your stomach and your brain. A nurse gives it as a slow push into your IV line. Or you can get it as a shot. Most people feel it work in about 15 minutes. Our nurse practitioner orders it after your health check. The shot is $32.
What anti nausea medicine does in your body
When your stomach is upset, it sends a signal to your brain. That signal says “get sick.” This medicine blocks it. The queasy feeling fades. You can keep water down. Then the fluids and vitamins in your IV can do their job.
It does not fix the cause. A hangover still needs fluids. A stomach bug still needs rest. The medicine gives you calm while your body catches up.
Most people feel it in about 15 minutes. The calm lasts for several hours. That is often enough to eat a meal and sleep.
For some people, our provider picks a second kind of anti nausea medicine. It also helps your stomach empty. Our nurse practitioner decides which one fits you.
