Medical - Medical: Pharmaceuticals / antiemético
English term or phrase: anti-nausea
Context:

Thalidomide (/θəˈlɪdəmaɪd/; from phthalimido-glutarimide[2]) is an anti-nausea and sedative drug that was introduced in the late 1950s to be used as a sleeping pill, and was quickly discovered to help pregnant women with the effects of morning sickness.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thalidomide

A minha pergunta é se posso usar "antináusea" ou seria mais correto utilizar antiemético? Parece-me que a palavra antináusea não é muito utilizada. Ou talvez antienjoo?
