Brief Answer:
Simple precautions advised
Detailed Answer:
I usually give doxinate tablet and ondansetron tablet which is very safe and helps in almost complete relief.
But these are prescription drugs so take a prescription after discussing with your gynaecologist.
In general take small and frequent meals with less of water along with meals.
Try to take simple non-cream biscuits, chocolates, sprouts for snacking and avoid spicy and fried stuff.
I hope above measures will help you

my dr. has prescribed Doxinate plus(upto thrice a day) and Ondem Md 4 if required. But I read online that Doxinate plus has a side effect of nausea and constipation. Is that true? I am really suspicious about it because I already remain constipated most of the time.
Brief Answer:
No such effect
Detailed Answer:
No dear there is no such effect as I have put almost 90% of my patients on doxinate and no one has complained about constipation.
It can be safely taken so don't be anxious and take it as advised.
All the best

Hi. A physician has recommended me Montair LC once a day and steam inhalation twice a day. Is it safe to take it during pregnancy?
Brief Answer:
Both are safe
Detailed Answer:
Yes dear both can be taken safely.
Steam inhalation will help you a lot by clearing the air passages and facilitating air entry.
Take care
