Remedies for nausea in pregnancy

Obviously we expect a little nausea in pregnancy and the initial approach should be non-pharmacological

• Small frequent meals with healthy snacks in between
• The B.R.A.T. diet- (Bananas, Rice, Applesauce, Toast) try eating mainly these items in small doses frequently until you are able to keep things down. These items tend to be binding and help ease an upset stomach.
• Wrist bands that can be purchased at most pharmacies (pressure bands)
• Ginger
• Vitamin B6 in twice a day dosing (usually 50 mgs)
• Decaffeinated “soothing teas” that can be found in the organic grocery stores that are promoted to help with nausea in early pregnancy
• Acupuncture has been found to be effective for some patients
• Over-the-counter Emetrol

Please call the office if you do not have success with these options.
