droperidol and Cancer of Ovary

droperidol has been researched along with Cancer of Ovary in 4 studies

Droperidol: A butyrophenone with general properties similar to those of HALOPERIDOL. It is used in conjunction with an opioid analgesic such as FENTANYL to maintain the patient in a calm state of neuroleptanalgesia with indifference to surroundings but still able to cooperate with the surgeon. It is also used as a premedicant, as an antiemetic, and for the control of agitation in acute psychoses. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 29th ed, p593)
droperidol : An organofluorine compound that is haloperidol in which the hydroxy group has been eliminated with the introduction of a double bond in the piperidine ring, and the 4-chlorophenyl group has been replaced by a benzimidazol-2-on-1-yl group. It is used in the management of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting, and in conjunction with an opioid analgesic such as fentanyl to maintain the patient in a calm state of neuroleptanalgesia with indifference to surroundings but still able to cooperate with the surgeon.

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"To better control both acute and delayed emesis resulting from cisplatin(CDDP)-based chemotherapy for gynecological malignancies, we designed a 'cocktail therapy' (CCT) using granisetron (GRN) in combination with methylprednisolone (MPD) plus droperidol (DRP)."9.10Combination therapy with granisetron, methylprednisolone and droperidol as an antiemetic prophylaxis in CDDP-induced delayed emesis for gynecologic cancer. ( Fukunaka, N; Ishioka, S; Kobayashi, K; Kudo, R; Minami, M; Nishioka, Y; Sagae, S; Sugimura, M; Terasawa, K, 2003)
