    Netupitant/palonosetron, sold under the brand name Akynzeo, is a fixed-dose combination medication used for the prevention of acute and delayed chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting.[7][9] It is marketed and distributed by Helsinn Therapeutics. Netupitant is an NK1 receptor antagonist and palonosetron is a 5-HT3 receptor antagonist.[10]

    The capsules contain netupitant and palonosetron hydrochloride. The intravenous version is a combination of fosnetupitant chloride hydrochloride and palonosetron hydrochloride.[11][7][8]

    Contraindications

    [edit]

    Netupitant/palonosetron may be contraindicated during pregnancy.[12][1][13]

    Adverse effects

    [edit]

    The most common side effects include headache, weakness, fatigue, upset stomach, constipation, and skin redness.[7] The overall profile of adverse effects is comparable to that of palonosetron (see Palonosetron#Adverse effects); no common adverse effects can be attributed to netupitant.[12]
