Hi,
Thanks for writing in.

The medicine ganaton OD is itopride and is prescribed for functional gastrointestinal disorders during the treatment of cancer. It lessens the nausea and dizziness due to gastrointestinal functional problems after chemotherapy.

Lymphosis cancer is lymphocytic leukemia and requires regular treatment with chemotherapeutic drugs. Many of these medicines might induce nausea, vomiting and dizziness in patients. Ganton suppresses these undesired symptoms.

It should be taken on an empty stomach and at least 30 minutes before food. Few patients might have side effects like diarrhea, headache, abdominal pain. These effects do not happen regularly. Please do not worry.
