How can I give Ondee 2mg/5ml Drop to my child?

Take this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Check the label for directions before use. Measure it with a marked dropper and take it as directed. Ondee 2mg/5ml Drop may be taken with or without food, but it is better to take it at a fixed time.

How Ondee Drop works

During radiotherapy, chemotherapy, abdominal infection, or any major surgeries, the dead cells in the body start releasing a chemical called serotonin directly into the blood. Later, this stimulates special centers in the body that are responsible for inducing vomiting in your child. Giving Ondee 2mg/5ml Drop just before the procedure helps block the effect of this chemical on vomiting centers of the brain and prevents vomiting.
