Pharmacokinetics

AbsorptionRapidly absorbed after intramuscular injection; intravenous administration provides immediate systemic availability.

DistributionWidely distributed in body tissues; crosses the blood-brain barrier.

Protein BindingApproximately 65% bound to plasma proteins.

MetabolismHepatic metabolism via CYP3A4 isoenzyme; undergoes N-demethylation and oxidation.

Half-LifeApproximately 9 hours in healthy adults; may be prolonged in elderly or hepatic impairment.

ExcretionPrimarily excreted in urine (about 12% unchanged) and feces (about 38% as metabolites).

BioavailabilityNot applicable for intravenous route; intramuscular bioavailability is approximately 100%.

Onset of ActionRapid; within 1-3 minutes after intravenous administration.

Peak Plasma TimeImmediately after intravenous injection; 30-60 minutes after intramuscular injection.

Duration of ActionUp to 24 hours for prevention of nausea and vomiting.

How It Works

Selective serotonin 5-HT3 receptor antagonist; blocks serotonin binding at 5-HT3 receptors in the chemoreceptor trigger zone and gastrointestinal tract.

Mechanism Steps

1Granisetron binds to 5-HT3 receptors on vagal nerve terminals in the gastrointestinal tract and in the chemoreceptor trigger zone (CTZ) of the area postrema.

2Blocks serotonin from binding to these receptors, preventing activation of the vomiting reflex.

3Inhibits the release of neurotransmitters such as substance P and dopamine, further reducing emetic signals.
