Plenty of information out there on pain killers, but does anyone know the names of the anti-nausea drugs and their side effects? - and any other drugs choices that we may be faced with during labour?

I was given an anti nausea drug called Stemitil/Stemetil in my first PG and a different drug called Avomine in my second PG.
Stemetil was also given to me during and following C Section to combat nausea.

Thanks Magic Mummy!

Did you have to actually be sick, or just feel sick to get it?

I was actually being sick.
Avomine is available over the counter now though coz it's a travel sickness medicine but used for nausea in pregnancy.
