Second-Line Pharmacotherapy for Excessive Vomiting in Pregnancy

When nausea and vomiting in pregnancy persists despite initial management, a stepwise escalation of pharmacological therapy is indicated. The next pharmacological step involves the addition of a specific sedating antihistamine agent.

If nausea and vomiting persists, a second sedating antihistamine should be added. The complete protocol defines the agent, available routes of administration, and the full dosing parameters — see the structured regimen for details.
