  • Description

    Granisetron 3MG Injection, a potent and highly selective 5-HT3 receptor antagonist, exerts its mechanism of action by blocking serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) from binding to 5-HT3 receptors in the chemoreceptor trigger zone and gastrointestinal tract. This blockade inhibits the stimulation of the vomiting center in the medulla oblongata, thereby suppressing nausea and vomiting. Specifically, granisetron's affinity for 5-HT3 receptors prevents the initiation of the vomiting reflex, making it effective in the management of nausea and vomiting associated with chemotherapy and radiotherapy.
