RSGRAM 5 Tablet

What is RSGRAM 5 Tablet?

RSGRAM 5 Tablet contains Ramosetron Hydrochloride 5 mcg, a selective 5‑HT3 receptor antagonist used as an antiemetic and in diarrhea‑predominant irritable bowel syndrome (IBS‑D). Doctors prescribe this medicine to prevent or control nausea and vomiting after chemotherapy, radiotherapy or surgery and to improve IBS‑D symptoms such as loose stools and abdominal discomfort.​

Ramosetron Hydrochloride 5 mcg works by blocking serotonin‑mediated signals in the gut and brain that trigger vomiting and abnormal bowel movements. This dual action makes RSGRAM 5 Tablet a useful option where both emesis and diarrhea‑predominant IBS are concerns, under a gastroenterologist’s guidance.​
