Typical Dosing

  • The usual recommended dose is to apply one patch to a clean, dry area of the skin at least 24 hours before chemotherapy or radiation treatment. The patch should be worn for up to 7 days.

  • Use in patients with a history of hypersensitivity reactions to other 5-HT3 antagonists.
