How does SANCUSO work?

SANCUSO is a transparent, discreet adhesive patch that delivers a steady dose of granisetron via the skin for up to 7 days, used in the prevention of nausea and vomiting associated with chemotherapy treatment.1

Granisetron is a ‘5-HT3 receptor antagonist’, which counteracts the effects of serotonin.1 Serotonin is a natural substance in the body that occurs at higher levels due to chemotherapy treatment, leading to potential nausea and vomiting symptoms.2
