Kim:
Thanks for sharing what you have learned. Emetrol is an “old school” drug but most folks have stopped using it due to its unpleasant side effect profile. It is a little concerning that when treating someone for nausea, they could experience fainting. Therefore, most folks have changed to nausea medications (zofran, phenergan) that appear to be safer overall.

swelling of face, arms, and legs.
