Vomiting has long been regarded as one of the most unpleasant aspects of anaesthesia. In addition, it is a feature of many medical and surgical conditions and of travel by land, sea and air. Its effects range from the simply annoying, to life-threatening electrolyte upset. The choice of a cytotoxic drug or the alternative of radiotherapy may be determined by the likelihood of vomiting rather than efficacy against the neoplasm. All these aspects are of importance to the anaesthetist and this review describes the mechanisms and physiology of vomiting, in addition to the pharmacology of its causes and means of prevention.
