Common nausea drug beats ketamine in stopping Post-Surgery shivers

This study tested whether ondansetron (a nausea drug) or low-dose ketamine (a painkiller) works better to prevent shivering after spinal anesthesia. 180 adults having elective surgery took part. Results showed ondansetron caused shivering in 30% of patients, while ketamine caused it in 44%, making ondansetron the more effective option.
