Vomiover-MD 4 Tablet contains ondansetron (4 mg), which acts on your body in the following ways:

Serotonin Blocker: Ondansetron works by selectively blocking serotonin 5-HT3 receptors present in your central nervous system and gastrointestinal tract. Serotonin is a natural substance in your body that can trigger feelings of nausea and an urge to vomit.
Vomiting Centre Inhibition: By blocking the action of serotonin at these receptor sites, ondansetron prevents the activation of the 'vomiting centre' in your brain. This helps suppress feelings of nausea and prevents vomiting episodes.
Peripheral Nerve Blocking: Ondansetron also acts on peripheral nerves in your intestines, preventing them from triggering sensations of nausea and vomiting. This contributes towards the overall antiemetic effect of the medicine.
