Zofer 4 MG Tablet Health Feed

Asked for male, 35 years old from Bangalore

Hi, My wife is 7-8 weeks pregnant and is very skinny (weighs approx 35 kilos). She has nausea and has been vomiting. She is unable to eat any solid or liquid food and is constantly vomiting every intake. After a visit at doctor she was prescribed folic acid as vitamin pills and emeset-4 mg (Ondansetron) for vomiting. Is it safe to take the emeset tablet. Will it have any immediate or after effects on the fetus? Thankyou.

My wife is 54 years old. She has thyroid, bp. Since 4 months she is suffering from vomiting. She was admitted in hospital for the same reason. Even after a week of discharge from the hospital, vomiting again started. All reports are normal.

Please tell what should be done to stop her vomiting?

Hello,
It's desirable that you take combination of doxylamine and pyridoxine for treatment of nausea and vomiting of pregnancy.

I do not advice to take any medicine during the 1st trimester. your vomiting n nausea is because of smell which is very common in the 1st trim. Change your environment and everything would be fine.
