Ondansetron
A selective 5-HT3 receptor antagonist, ondansetron blocks the serotonin signaling that triggers nausea and vomiting. It is used to prevent these symptoms after chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery. With the molecular formula C18H19N3O, it was among the first agents of its class and transformed the tolerability of cancer treatment by controlling emesis that older antiemetics could not.
A serotonin receptor antagonist preventing chemotherapy-induced and post-operative nausea and vomiting.

No targets recorded
Target interaction data is not yet available for this drug.
Escitalopram and ondansetron together carry dual risks: serotonin syndrome and additive QT interval prolongation, making this combination particularly dangerous.
Azithromycin and ondansetron both prolong the cardiac QT interval; their combination substantially increases the risk of torsades de pointes.
Fluconazole inhibits the metabolism of ondansetron and both drugs prolong the QT interval, creating a compounded arrhythmia risk.
Ciprofloxacin and ondansetron both prolong the QT interval; combined use raises the risk of torsades de pointes and sudden cardiac death.
Hydroxychloroquine and ondansetron both prolong cardiac repolarization via hERG blockade; concurrent use substantially elevates arrhythmia risk.
No side effects recorded
