This document discusses several classes of drugs used to treat vomiting and regulate gastrointestinal motility. It outlines the mechanisms and clinical uses of antiemetic drugs that act on histamine, dopamine, serotonin, and cannabinoid receptors to treat chemotherapy-induced vomiting and motion sickness. It also summarizes the types and mechanisms of laxative drugs that work by bulking stool, drawing water into the intestines, or stimulating intestinal nerves. Antidiarrheal drugs are discussed that decrease intestinal secretion, motility and absorption to maintain fluid and electrolyte balance.
