Tiapride

Tiapride is a medication that belongs to the class of drugs known as dopamine receptor antagonists. It primarily functions as an antiemetic, which means it helps prevent nausea and vomiting. Additionally, it can be used as an anti-emetic agent to manage postoperative nausea and vomiting. Tiapride is also effective in treating patients experiencing persistent hiccups, known as intractable hiccups. It works by blocking the action of dopamine, a neurotransmitter that plays a crucial role in nausea, vomiting, and hiccups. As a combination medication, Tiapride offers relief from uncomfortable and debilitating symptoms while promoting overall well-being for those who need it.
