Comments

DO NOT PRESCRIBE (DNP)5: nausea and vomiting in pregnancy. 

Based on review of NICE ES20 (June 2019) - limited evidence and cost.

The Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists do not recommend the use of pyridoxine (for nausea and vomiting in pregnancy) due to its potential for causing peripheral neuropathy.
