When it comes to postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) management, multimodal, antiemetic therapy based on patients’ risk factors is routinely provided to minimize the incidence, but unfortunately, patients may still develop breakthrough PONV, in which an antiemetic should be administered from a different class from what's given for prevention.1 Barhemsys® (amisulpride) is an FDA-approved antiemetic for the treatment of PONV in patients who have or have not received prophylaxis.2 Learn more about this treatment option along with current management guidelines, key clinical considerations, and a real-world case study with TJ Gan, MD, MBA, MHS, and Dru Riddle, PhD, DNP. Dr. Gan is the Head of the Division of Anesthesiology and Perioperative Medicine, Critical Care, and Pain Medicine at the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, and Dr. Riddle is a certified nurse anesthetist at Texas Christian University in Ft.
