For Gastroenteritis "Besides the 24-hour constipation from ondansetron, definitely a life saver when it comes to my gastroparesis. Not as strong, but takes the edge off."

For Gastroenteritis "Excellent antiemetic. Its side effect of constipation works well in controlling acute episodes of gastritis/IBD. Constipation may last for 2-3 days when using as an antiemetic alone."
