How does ondansetron impact appetite regulation in patients and what are the potential mechanisms through which it may influence hunger, satiety signals, or eating patterns during treatment?
Ondansetron, primarily an antiemetic, may impact appetite by influencing serotonin receptors, which are involved in both nausea relief and appetite control. Thus, it can sometimes lead to reduced hunger.
