Pregdoc Plus Tablet 10 is composed of three active ingredients:

• Doxylamine succinate (10 mg): This antihistamine works by blocking histamine-1 (H1) receptors in your brain, specifically in the area controlling vomiting. By doing so, it effectively reduces nausea and vomiting.

• Pyridoxine hydrochloride (10 mg): Also known as vitamin B6, pyridoxine functions as a coenzyme in the creation of neurotransmitters such as serotonin and dopamine. These neurotransmitters are involved in pathways that regulate nausea and vomiting. A deficiency in vitamin B6 can exacerbate morning sickness symptoms.

• Folic acid (2.5 mg): An essential nutrient, folic acid aids DNA synthesis, red blood cell production and fetal neural development. By correcting any folic acid deficiencies, it contributes to reducing nausea and vomiting during pregnancy.

• Store Pregdoc Plus Tablet 10 at room temperature.

• Keep it in a dry place, away from direct light.

• Always close the container tightly after use.

• Keep it out of reach of children to prevent accidental ingestion.

• Follow a balanced diet rich in B vitamins, particularly B6, as this can help manage nausea and vomiting during pregnancy. Foods high in B6 include bananas, avocados, and chickpeas.

• Stay well-hydrated by drinking plenty of water throughout the day. Dehydration can worsen feelings of nausea and vomiting.
