Nausea-vomiting in pregnancy

 

Shieva Ghofrany: [00:00:00] I've gotten so many more questions about nausea and vomiting in pregnancy lately, and so this is a big subject, but suffice to say, you don't need to suffer. You can certainly ask your doctor, if I'm not your doctor, what you can take, and things like frequent small meals instead of big meals. Blander food, less spicy food can always help.

But the safest medication that we know right now is a category A, which is the old classification of medications where it was random. Prospectively studied, um, and it's called Unisom, the over-the-counter sleeping pill. If you're gonna get the over-the-counter version, make sure it's the tablet, not the gel cap, because the gel cap is a different version.

It's actually just Benadryl coupled with Vitamin b6. You can get it as a prescription where it's called either Diplegia or Bonta. But again, if you hit the over-the-counter version, it is a Unisom tablet. The generic is Domine. Again, tablet, not gel cap, and it really works. Don't suffer.
