The BRAT diet consists of bananas, rice (white), applesauce, and toast. These foods don't taste overwhelming, so they're less likely to bother you. Treatments for morning sickness include vitamin B-6 (pyridoxine) supplements, ginger, and medications such as doxylamine (Unisom). The persistence of symptoms may require the prescription of anti-nausea medications. Vitamin B6 is a safe, over-the-counter treatment that can be tried first for nausea and vomiting during pregnancy.
Doxylamine, a medication found in over-the-counter sleep aids, may be added if vitamin B6 alone doesn't ease symptoms. If home remedies aren't enough, there are safe supplements and medications that can help alleviate morning sickness during pregnancy. Two of the most common options are vitamin B6 and doxylamine, which are sometimes used separately or together as prescription drug Diclegis.
