The right prescription for nausea and vomiting in pregnancy

Nausea and vomiting in pregnancy (NVP) are regarded as a ‘normal’ phenomenon of early pregnancy, and so their impact is under-appreciated and under-researched. The condition can, however, be so serious that women need admission for fluid replacement. GPs and practice nurses looking after women with NVP need to be aware of its potential severity and be willing to offer safe and effective therapy.
