Zofer MD 4 tablet composition includes ondansetron, a selective serotonin 5-HT3 receptor antagonist. Serotonin is a neurotransmitter in the gastrointestinal tract, brain, and other body areas. 

When the body detects the presence of an irritant or harmful substance in the gastrointestinal tract, it triggers the release of serotonin, which then binds to 5-HT3 receptors in the brain and the gastrointestinal tract. This binding causes a sensation of nausea and vomiting.

Ondansetron works by blocking the 5-HT3 receptors in the gastrointestinal tract and the brain, thereby reducing the sensation of nausea and vomiting. It also reduces the activity of the vagus nerve, which is responsible for triggering the vomiting reflex.

Ondansetron is a highly selective antagonist that binds to the 5-HT3 receptor with high affinity and specificity. By binding to this receptor, ondansetron prevents serotonin from binding to and activating it, reducing the sensation of nausea and vomiting. 

It is also believed to reduce the release of other neurotransmitters involved in the vomiting reflex, such as dopamine.
