Gynecologists or doctors here or mums who know help?

Question

I am currently in Mexico touring with a show, and I got very sick and was hospitalised for vomiting 15 times in one day and dehydrating, they said some mothers get sever morning sickness and have prescribed me Bonadoxia this contains 25mgs of Meclizina and 50mg of Piridoxina this is to stop me vomiting, will this harm my baby I am 6 weeks pergnant and dont know if I can trust the Mexican doctors, but I am too far from the US boarder to go ask a doctor there. What can I do. I looked the ingredients up on the net, but think perhaps they are spelt slightly different in English as I coudlnt find the drug on the search engine

Please help I believe that the Piridoxina is what is in Diclectin, but I can't find the Meclizina

Answer 1

I bounced it off my mother in law who's a medical researcher, she works at Pfizer... she didn't know either.

I'd be worried about travellers sickness, strange water, etc. Are you accustom to travelling to this part of Mexico? Drink lots, gatorade if you can so your electrolytes stay up...

Good luck, I wish I could help you more.

Perhaps try to run it through Wikipedia? Its a mulit-lingual database.
