It works by blocking the signals in the brain responsible for nausea and dizziness, providing relief from these symptoms. Additionally, Stemetil MD Tablet can be used for the acute management of vertigo and nausea associated with various conditions.

It is a dopamine antagonist and a vestibular suppressant, which helps in treating vertigo and nausea, and also acts as an antiemetic (anti-nausea). It works by blocking the action of dopamine, a neurotransmitter involved in nausea and vomiting.

How Stemetil MD Tablet Works:
Stemetil MD Tablet works through multiple mechanisms:
- Vestibular Suppressant: By blocking the H1 receptors in the inner ear, it suppresses the signals that cause vertigo. This action helps in reducing dizziness and imbalance.
- Dopamine Antagonist: Prochlorperazine blocks dopamine receptors in the brain, which is responsible for controlling nausea and vomiting. This also helps in relieving nausea and vomiting associated with conditions like migraine and vertigo.
- Serotonin (5HT3) and Dopamine (D2) Receptor Antagonism: It acts on serotonin and dopamine receptors in the brain, which is thought to help in relieving both headaches and anxiety.
