Nausea Clinical Trial
Official title:
A Study to Evaluate the Anti-Emetic Effect of Ginger Powder Vs Placebo as an Add-on Therapy in Children and Adolescents Receiving Chemotherapy : A Randomized Controlled Trial
Ginger root powder is found to be significantly effective,when given as an add-on therapy in
reducing chemotherapy induced nausea and vomiting in children and adolescents receiving
chemotherapy.
It is very cost effective and as compared to the other add-on therapy drug like aprepitant.
Cisplatin is a chemotherapeutic agent with high emetogenic potential. High doses of Cisplatin
(120 mg/m2) induces nausea and vomiting in 90 % of patients. More than 60% of patients
experience nausea and vomiting even if they are getting the conventional anti emetic
medications.
Children and adolescents with cancer are using complementary and alternative medicine (CAM)
to relieve symptoms, reduce side effects of treatment, and cope with the emotional aspects of
having a life-threatening illness. Parental decisions about using CAM should be based on
studies of efficacy and safety .
Ginger is already used in traditional folk medicine to treat nausea and
vomiting.Additionally, ginger's ability to block 5-HT3 receptors and its free-radical
scavenging action in the gut suggests that it may be beneficial for reducing both the
prevalence and severity of chemotherapy induced nausea and vomiting.
Ginger is an easily available and cost effective substance in Indian scenario; (1gm costs
less than one rupees). A dose of 1-2 gm of ginger is found to have favourable effects in
reducing the incidence of nausea and vomiting. There are not much side-effects of ginger have
been established so far, except mild stomach upset, increased burping and nausea seen in very
few patients after the ingestion of ginger. Ginger is a widely available,affordable and
acceptable natural substance which is to be included as an additional treatment option for
chemotherapy induced nausea and vomiting which will significantly improve the health,
compliance with treatment and quality of life of patients receiving chemotherapy.
