For Nausea/Vomiting "I have to say, it tastes wicked good. I've been sick with a stomach bug since 5ish this morning. I vomited it all out earlier and have been able to keep food and liquid down, but have been having those queasy feelings since then that are more annoying than threatening. Anyway, I took Emetrol for the first time ever at 4:40 pm. I've had this bottle forever but haven't really had a reason to use it, until now as this is my first time vomiting in 7 years. It burns a bit going down and has an interesting throat feel, but it tastes so good I don't even mind. Yes, you can taste the medicine somewhat, but it's not that bad. Especially considering what I was tasting and having burn in my throat earlier. It has only been 4 minutes, but I do feel a difference. I will definitely use this again! :) 9/10 so far just because I still need to see where time takes me."

For Nausea/Vomiting "My Fiancé had a little too much fun the night before. He was vomiting all day, and could not keep any fluids down. I go him the emetrol and he vomited 5 minutes after because he had just drank water. So right after he vomited I gave him more. Told him not to drink anything. It took about 4 doses. This was a very severe hangover. He was throwing up until 10pm at night. But this stuff did the trick! 15 minutes afterwards, I had him take small sips of Gatorade and water every 5 minutes. He finally fell asleep and kept his liquids down. I highly recommend this stuff!"

For Nausea/Vomiting "I have the stomach flu for 8 days now I have been able to keep drinks down and some crackers but my stomach hurt and the nausea was unbearable. I got Zolfran from the doc but u can only take it 2 times a day. All I wanted was for the nausea to stop after trying a lot of otc stuff I found emetrol and I was thinking there is no way this is going to work but I was so done with being nauseous I gave it a try one thing I can say is it burns my throat, you are not supposed to have water rite after taking it but I need a sip. Also you take it every 15 mins until it works so you end up taking a lot of it. I wish it worked in one dose the taste on it makes me wanna throw up and I did. I took 3 doses and just throw it all up the taste is to strong now that I am nauseous again and not sure if I should take more I felt like it was working earlier then as I am writing a review I start throwing up again. I still can't eat"

For Nausea/Vomiting "I read all the reviews and I figured I'd try it cuz everyone was saying it was a 9 out of 10 except for 1 or 2 reviews. So I was really nauseous and I took a dose and about 10 mins later I was puking. I have emetophobia (fear of vomiting) so I figured this would help but sadly it didn't.. I'll re try it again in the future though."
Are you taking this medicine?

For Nausea/Vomiting "I'd been on anti-anxiety meds (Lexapro) for over a year, and just started tapering off of it. About a month into tapering I started experiencing horrible nausea and vomiting as if I got the stomach flu. I vomited myself in front of the pharmacist, LOL literally, and while I was teary-eyed from the exhaustion of the side effects she recommended Emetrol. I took it and the nausea went away completely, THANK GAWD :D"

For Nausea/Vomiting "So I took Plan B about a week ago and just now started feeling very nauseous. It lasted the whole night and I took my last Zofran that helped for about 6 hours but then it was back. I picked up this medicine to help relieve the nausea and it definitely helped! I’m still not 100% but I’m a lot better than I was a couple hours ago. Give this a try!"

For Nausea/Vomiting "My husband brought this home to help me with major nausea while having covid. I guess I didn't think it would contain an enormous amount of sugar which I can't have. (sugar in some form). I almost went into a sugar coma. I could not stop shaking. I felt like I drank 5 cups of espresso and my sugar levels were off the chart. Miserable from head to toe. It also gave me heartburn. I will never touch it again."

For Nausea/Vomiting "I don’t really know how to feel about this sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn’t. I don’t know what else to take but I had come across good reviews for this on the internet. I don’t know if it’s more of a mental thing or what. The bottle does go very fast! When you take the 15 mg and if you have to double dose than it will go even faster. I would give it a try being that it does kind of work but if you don’t like very sweet cherry I would stay away from this"

For Nausea/Vomiting "I did work for me for 2 hours then the nausea came back and the 4oz bottle I finished in 8 servings, they recommend to have no more than 5 servings in an hour so the bottle was gone in less than 3 hours, I will not buy it again. The pharmacist recommended."

For Nausea/Vomiting "In all 44 years of life, I’ve NEVER heard of this medication and was skeptical. I stumbled upon Emitrol in a desperate search for something to help my brother who was non stop vomiting for over two days. I was about to call an ambulance it was that bad and have never seen anyone stay so violently ill for so long. He fought me on it, wouldn’t take it until he finally relented and IMMEDIATELY he began to improve. It’s been 12 hours and I’m happy to report he’s getting back to his old self! I HIGHLY recommend it! It’s as miraculous as all the reviews claim it to be!!!! My brother is a large man (6 ft over 275lbs) and was improved with ONE dose!"

For Nausea/Vomiting "I was diagnosed with mono last week and started to get severe nausea a couple of days ago. I was prescribed Zofran, but I sometimes have strange effects with that medication. My boyfriend picked up some Emetrol for me from the pharmacy and within minutes after the first dose, my nausea subsided. I have been using it since and I haven't had any nausea. It is great for quick relief. I highly recommend this!!"

For Nausea/Vomiting "I am on Wegovy for weight loss. I have been feeling low-level nausea for months. I tried Emetrol, and it has been a game-changer! I went out for dinner last night and had an appetite. I felt fine all night, which is such a relief. I was thinking of stopping Wegovy because the nausea is really hard. Now I think I have conquered the one major side effect."
