Meristone 2mg Injection contains Ondansetron, which works by blocking the action of a chemical in the body (serotonin) responsible for causing nausea and vomiting.

In some cases, Meristone 2mg Injection may cause headache, constipation, a feeling of warmth or flushing, redness, and irritation at the site of injection. If the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.
