Description

Promethazine 25 mg suppositories are used primarily to treat nausea, vomiting, and motion sickness. Promethazine is a phenothiazine derivative with antihistaminic, antiemetic, and sedative properties. It works by blocking histamine H1 receptors and has a central anticholinergic effect, reducing symptoms such as nausea and dizziness.

Each suppository contains 25 mg of promethazine and is formulated for rectal administration. This route allows for rapid absorption of the medication into the bloodstream, bypassing the digestive system. The suppositories are individually packaged to ensure hygiene and maintain their integrity until use.

Promethazine 25 mg suppositories are stored at controlled room temperature, generally between 20°C and 25°C (68°F and 77°F). They should be protected from excessive heat and moisture to prevent melting or degradation. Common side effects include drowsiness, dizziness, and dry mouth. Serious but rare side effects may include respiratory depression, especially in children or individuals with pre-existing conditions.
