Abstract: A composition for the treatment of emesis comprising 8-hydroxy-2-(dipropylamino)tetralin in which the ratio of the S enantiomer of the 8-hydroxy-2-(dipropylamino)tetralin to the R enantiomer of the 8-hydroxy-2-(dipropylamino)tetralin is between 2:1 and 10:1, and a method of treating or preventing emesis with such a composition.

Abstract: A method of treating or preventing emesis through the administration of an effective dosage of a 2-(amino)tetralin compound in which one of the S or R enantiomers of the 2-(amino) tetralin compound is present in the composition in excess of the other enantiomer, and compositions comprising such a 2-(amino)tetralin compound in which the ratio of the S and R enantiomers is at least 2:1.
