Taking unisom AND b6 for morning sickness?
My OB advised me when I was pregnant with my son, 4 years ago, to take b6 and if that didnt help try 1/2 of a unisom. I didnt assume she meant together. I ended up on zofran and hospitalized anyways bc of the severity of my morning sickness.
I was reading online that they only work if you take them together. Anyone tried this? Did it work for you? I would just call my OB, but she doesnt practice anymore :( and my new OB is opening a new womans center but it hasnt opened yet, so he isnt in the office. Just the lady answering the phone, and she doesnt have a CLUE about anything I ask. Lol I still have another week before they open! Anyways, morning sickness has reared its awful ugly head. I need some kind of relief until then. I am already chewing big red gum, ginger everything isnt working, small frequent meal, yada yada yada. I have been down this road, You get the picture. Lol I am trying the b6 and unisom tonight. I just want some reassurance from someone that it will work! It HAS to work! Lol Sorry if this comes off snarky, not meaning for it to, I just dont feel well. :( |
Re: Taking unisom AND b6 for morning sickness?
Actually that is probably right, I'm in Canada and here we have a drug called Diclectin which is the combo of the 2 in one extended release pill. So, def. taken at the same time! I'm not sure how much of each is in each pill, but the normal dose is 2 at bedtime and 1 twice a day, but my OB has okayed me to take 2 pills 4 times a day and that is finally working most of the time! Hope it works for you too.

You can use them separately, but they work best together.
I swear by seabands, though. I was their biggest skeptic until I tried them. |
Re: Taking unisom AND b6 for morning sickness?
I took unisom + B6 during my last pregnancy. It was about as effective as phenergan, IMO. I hope it helps you!
Just be careful taking it if you need to drive or watch your child(ren) because it will make you sleepy. |
Re: Taking unisom AND b6 for morning sickness?
They do work best together. For some people it's enough, for others not. It's definitely a good starting point though. I hope it ends up being enough for you!

Re: Taking unisom AND b6 for morning sickness?
Worked for me! I took them together. I had hyperemesis with all four of my pregnancies. Hang in there!
|
Thank yall SO much!!! I really hope it helps me! If not, this is SO my last pregnancy! Lol As much as I hate even considering that, my body is just to sensitive to the hormone, and each day is a struggle. I hate it so much for DS.
Where can I buy sea bands? Amazon? |
You can get sea bands at Wal-Mart, target, Amazon...pretty much anywhere.
|
B6/unisom combo was always the first line treatment for my hyperemesis. I had to take a whole unison with the B6. The other thing that was always mentioned is that I guess there are different types/forms of unisom, make sure you take the original regular strength one....tiny blue pill.

Re: Taking unisom AND b6 for morning sickness?
The combo made me REALLY restless and nervous. I couldn't calm down while I was taking them. The sea bands also did nothing for me. I just get really sick haha! Zofran is the best, but I need to be laying down with my eyes closed for it to really take.
