Anyone else try this?

Question

So I'm 14 weeks and I've been diagnosed with severe morning sickness. (The word starts with an "H", can't spell it.) Someone recommended I try mixing B6 vitamins with unisom sleep tabs, both are safe and the combination is FDA approved for nausea in pregnancy. This combo is actually the same thing as the prescription medication "Dicglesis" (spelling?) anyone else try this combo and have some success?

Answer

Hey! I have hyperemesis too (finally been starting to feel better at 22 weeks, almost 24 now).

I used zofran all through my puking days (no judgment please- I did my research- please go to the HER foundation website to see their stance on it as well). It worked well but it wasn't enough when I got worse at 13 weeks so they started me on that combo. 
I found that that combo did more for the nausea, while the zofran did more for the vomiting. It did help a lot, though it left me somewhat drowsy. The thing that did the most for me was IV fluids, though.

Answer

I don't have HG since I believe that develops in the first trimester.. (I was fine through the first, and suddenly got ridiculously sick around week 18 to where it seemed similar, as I couldn't even hold down water.) as I am not a pharmacist, I wouldn't know on mixing the separate pills, but I take Diclegis and it's a miracle drug for me. I read another forum where someone mentioned trying the two different pills and it didn't work for her, but the Diclegis did. She wasn't sure if it was a mental thing, or the fact that Diclegis is time-released, or what, but either way, I've been taking it about a month and it's still doing great! Just make sure the dosages match if you try it!

Answer

Diclegis worked wonderful for me then all of a sudden after 3 weeks it's stopped working and nothing has helped me after that. I say give it a try because hyperemesis is no joke and that's the safest med to take. Good luck! Hopefully things get better soon.
