Hi, Thanks for using the XXXXXXX

Tab Omez belongs to uncertain or unsafe group of drug in pregnancy. So better to take tab Ranitidine as it is the safer alternative in pregnancy for acid peptic disorder.
So better to take ranitidine tab. For vomiting tab promethazine or tab metoclopramide is safer alternative.

Hope I have answered your query. If you have any further questions I will be happy to answer. Thank you.
Get well soon.
