I am pregnant and the medication I am taking for vomiting is not effective enough?

Question

hello, i am 11 weeks pregnant and i have frequent nausea and vomiting in a short period of time. I take medication at breakfast: losec 20mg, neurontin 400mg; at dinner: zoloft, seroquel and neurontin; and at bedtime: desirl, rivotril, neurontin. When I take my medication (plus diclectin qid) it may not even take 10 minutes before the next vomiting and this two-three times in not even 45 minutes... I eat, I hydrate but I don't keep anything. What should I do? Because my medication when I don't have it in my body, I have dark thoughts and I can't sleep

Hello, thank you for your question! It is often suggested to take the nausea medication at least 45 minutes before taking the other medications to reduce the risk of vomiting. That being said, I strongly advise you to contact your pharmacist: the dose of Diclectin could be increased, or, if you find it ineffective, other options are possible! I hope I've been helpful, and please don't hesitate if you have any further questions! Tom Samaha, Pharmacist
