Antiemetics classification

Some of this classification is not pure in that agents in some subcategories have multiple pharmacological properties that are frequently of clinical usefulness and not necessarily related to psychotropic effects. For example, some of the minor tranquilizers include members that have excellent skeletal muscle relaxant properties several are used as antiepileptics (e.g., diazepam). The diphenylmethane derivative hydroxyzine is a particularly good example of multiple pharmacology. In addition to its anxiolytic (antianxiety) property, it also exhibits the following clinically significant assets antihistaminic, adrenolytic, antiemetic, antispasmodic, hypothermic, and sedative effects. [Pg.546]
