Ongo Tablet DT belongs to a group of medications called ' antiemetics,' primarily used in the prevention of vomiting (being sick) and nausea (feeling sick) that usually occur after cancer chemotherapy, radiation treatment, or surgery. Nausea is an uneasy feeling in which a person feels an urge to vomit, while vomiting is the natural response of the body to expel the stomach contents from the mouth forcefully.

Ongo Tablet DT contains Ondanestron, which works by blocking the action of a chemical in the body (serotonin) responsible for causing nausea and vomiting. As a result, Ongo Tablet DT prevents the sensation of nausea and vomiting caused by conditions like surgery, cancer chemotherapy, pregnancy, or motion sickness.
