A method in which gepants (antagonists of calcitonin gene related peptide (CGRP) receptor) are used for direct treatment of nausea and vomiting including chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV). Among them, drugs frequently prompt nausea and vomiting, such as antitumor chemotherapeutics which often cause CINV which in turn can severely compromise efficacy of therapy, as well as patient quality of life. The method uses antagonists of the CGRP receptor recently approved for migraine treatment to target calcitonin gene related peptide (CGRP), a neuropeptide with pleiotypic effects in the human body to prevent and counteract drug-induced nausea and vomiting including CINV.
