Quick tips

Apremed Capsule is taken alongside other medicines to help stop sickness (nausea and vomiting) after chemotherapy.
Even if you do not feel like eating or drinking, try to sip water regularly to prevent you from becoming lacking in fluid in the body (dehydrated).
If you are taking any contraceptive 'pill' at the same time as this medicine, the effectiveness of the 'pill' can be reduced if you have a bout of being sick (vomiting) which lasts for more than 24 hours. In such a case, ask your doctor for additional contraceptive precautions.

Frequently asked questions

What is Apremed Capsule used for?

Apremed Capsule is a medicine used to prevent and treat nausea and vomiting caused by chemotherapy or other anti-cancer treatments. It works by blocking signals to the brain that trigger the feeling of nausea or vomiting.

Who should not take Apremed Capsule?

Apremed Capsule should not be taken by anyone allergic to aprepitant or any of the ingredients in the medicine. It must also not be used together with certain medicines such as pimozide, terfenadine, astemizole, or cisapride, because dangerous interactions may occur.

What precautions should I take before using Apremed Capsule?

Before taking Apremed Capsule, tell your doctor if you have liver problems, are taking blood thinners like warfarin, or use hormonal contraceptives. Aprepitant may make contraceptive pills less effective, so extra protection may be needed.

Can Apremed Capsule affect my liver?

Yes. Apremed Capsule is metabolised by the liver, so people with moderate to severe liver disease need extra monitoring. Signs of liver problems may include yellowing of the skin or eyes, dark urine, or unusual tiredness.

What are the serious side effects of Apremed Capsule?

Serious side effects of Apremed Capsule may include severe allergic reactions (such as swelling of the face, lips, or throat and difficulty breathing), skin reactions, or liver problems. If you notice these, you should seek medical help immediately.

Can Apremed Capsule cause allergic reactions?

Yes. Although they are rare, Apremed Capsule can cause serious allergic reactions. Symptoms include rash, itching, hives, swelling, or difficulty breathing. Emergency treatment is needed if these occur.

Does Apremed Capsule affect blood clotting or heart rhythm?

Apremed Capsule can affect blood-thinning medicines like warfarin and may change blood test results. While it does not usually affect heart rhythm, dangerous interactions can happen if taken with certain heart medicines.

Can Apremed Capsule make hormonal contraceptives less effective?

Yes. Apremed Capsule can reduce the effectiveness of birth control pills, patches, or implants. Women using hormonal contraception should use an extra non-hormonal method during treatment and for two months after the last dose of this medicine.
