I was given these (metoclopramide) by my gp today as anti sickness tabs as i have had really bad nausea and gastroentiritis, but reading up on the online and now im a little worried about them! Anyone had them or any advice about them? Please?? X

I've taken these throughout most of this pregnancy and my previous pregnancy with no ill effects.

I had hyperemisis (Excessive sickness and nausea) in both pregnancies, and have taken every anti-sickness drug available, to a great or lesser extent. In my first pg it was metoclopromide that helped me keep down enough food and water to get out hospital, where i'd been hydrated on a drip for 3 weeks. No ill effects to me or DS. I have also taken cyclizine, stemitil, Ondansestron, Avomine and Phenergan. The DC are both fine. Avomine actually made me sicker, and IV cyclizine was very trippy, but no lasting effects!
