Triple therapy may stop Kids' Post-Surgery vomiting

NCT ID NCT01739985

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tested whether adding a drug called droperidol to two standard anti-nausea medicines (ondansetron and dexamethasone) could better prevent vomiting after surgery in children at high risk. A total of 322 children aged 3 to 18 years took part. The main goal was to see if the three-drug combination reduced vomiting more effectively than the usual two-drug approach.
