Vomiting tablets are medicines from a group of emetics, which, according to the mechanism of action on the body, are divided into two groups: central action and reflex action. The first provoke vomiting, affecting the receptors of the zone of the vomiting center, located in the brain. Tablets of reflex action when ingested into the body locally irritate the vagus nerve of the stomach and duodenum, causing gastric contents to appear outside.
These drugs can be used for urgent purification of the stomach in such cases:
- poisoning with poor-quality food, poisonous substances;
- indigestion;
- alcoholism (for the development of aversion to alcohol).
