What Causes Ill And Stomach Sick When Taking Prenatal Pills During Pregnancy?
I am between 4 and 6 weeks pregnant - the doctor is doing blood work to find out exactly how far along i am and she has prescribed me prenatal pills (se-natal). Every time i take the pill it makes me ill and sick to my stomach. Is there anything i can do, eat or drink along with taking the pill to make these side effects go away?

Hi,
Thanks for the query.
Se-natal contains multivitamins and minerals.
This tablet it self may not be responsible for your nausea etc symptoms.
Generally some amount of nausea can be seen in early pregnancy.
So, possibly following measures can help in your case:
-Take tablet after food.
-Taking antiemetic tablets can help in relieving nausea.
Usually we prescribe tablets containing doxinate in this situation.
You can use with your doctor's advice.
-If the symptoms persist, better to change the brand of multivitamin tablets.
Take care.
