This is a randomized double-blind, controlled trial comparing two regimens of pre-abortion doxycycline. The aims of the study are to determine the serum levels of doxycycline when administered pre-operatively 4 hours or approximately 18 hours before a dilation and evacuation (D & E) abortion. The hypotheses being tested are that subjects who receive doxycycline with food the night before an abortion will have adequate serum levels, but less nausea and vomiting compared to women who take the doxycycline on an empty stomach on the morning of the abortion. Subjects will either take 200mg doxycycline on the night before and 2 caps placebo with a sip of water on the morning of surgery or 2 caps placebo the night before and 200mg doxycycline on the morning of surgery with a sip of water. All capsules will look identical. Diaries, questionnaires and a 10cc sample of blood for doxycycline levels will be collected from the subjects at the time of surgery.
This study was designed to assess the safety and efficacy of an investigational agent administered in addition to a standard anti-emetic regimen for the treatment of chemotherapy induced nausea and vomiting.
The objective of this study is to determine if caffeine 500 mg intravenously is efficacious when added to standard anti-emetic prophylaxis in the prevention of post-operative nausea and vomiting (PONV) in patients undergoing ambulatory surgery under general anesthesia.
The objectives of the study were to determine whether ondansetron treatment would reduce: - the amount of vomiting in the emergency department; - the need for intravenous rehydration; and - the need for hospitalization.
This study is looking at a range of doses of this NK-1 receptor antagonist drug, for both safety and effectiveness in prevention PONV
This study was designed to assess the safety and efficacy of different dosages and administration schedules of an investigational agent administered over 3 days when added to standard therapy used in the prevention of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting in cancer patients. Subjects will be asked to complete daily diaries while on study medication. In addition subjects will be required to return to the investigational site several times during the course of the study for follow up safety assessments which may include blood samples for hematology and chemistry evaluations as well as physical exams. A final assessment will be preformed on study Day 20-30 at which time the subject will complete the study.
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and tolerability of an investigational drug for the prevention of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting associated with moderately emetogenic chemotherapy.
This protocol will study an investigational drug treatment plan against standard therapy in the prevention of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting in patients diagnosed with breast cancer who are to be treated with up to 4 cycles of non-cisplatin moderately emetogenic chemotherapy.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of 2 doses of an approved drug for a new indication in the prevention of postoperative nausea and vomiting in patients receiving general anesthesia for open abdominal surgery requiring overnight hospital stay.
