What is Doxinate?
Doxinate containing the active ingredients doxylamine succinate and pyridoxine hydrochloride is designed specifically to treat nausea and vomiting of pregnancy (NVP). The delayed release tablets can help improve the quality of life and ability to conduct activities of daily living. Treating the condition may help prevent the progression to a more serious level called Hyperemesis Gravidarum (HG).
How is Doxinate used?
Doxinate is usually taken orally 3 times per day for 24 hour control of NVP. To prevent an upset stomach the medication should be taken with some food or a glass of milk. Contact a doctor for correct dosage and length of treatment as it will depend on the patient's condition and their response to the medication. Do not discontinue the medication without consulting a doctor as abruptly stopping the medication may cause a sudden return of all symptoms.
