In case you didn't know already, morning sickness refers to the feelings of recurrent nausea and associated vomiting experienced by a lot of women in early pregnancy. The exact cause is unknown but it is thought to be associated with hormonal changes. Though it can be very unpleasant to the mother to be,the baby is usually fine. Management usually entails a lot of rest and fluid intake,as well as,dietary modifications. A medication like the one mentioned above is however said to be the first FDA approved for home management. Some women go on to experience a very severe form of morning sickness referred to as Hyperemesis Gravidarum - severe nausea and recurrent vomiting associated with electrolyte (chemical ion) imbalance upon testing in a clinical setting. Patients are usually admitted for a few days and management modalities include symptomatic relief and fluid replacement. For more information,see References below.
