<s>[INST] hi, i am 3 months pregnant and despite vomittings i am avoiding vertina plus and NEXUM. i feel that NEXUM is not suiting me because everytime i take it i vomit. i told my gynae but she said that however i should continue that. Please suggest if its ok not to take it or not, and other thing is i m prescribes folid acid with zinc that is ZIFOLET once a day and duphaston twice a day. its my first pregnancy and i neither had any miscarriages or anything. i am 22 years old this july married from 1 year and 7 months. Please reply. [/INST] Hi there, It is not necessary for you to take any tablets except for Folic acid during the initial months of the pregnancy. In fact Folic acid is also advised only till 12 weeks of pregnancy the stage at which you are now. Nexium is to decrease acidity, Zinc is just mineral supplement and Phaeton twice a day is not required unless you are having symptoms of threatened miscarriage. Please remember that most pregnancies are absolutely normal and do not require much medical intervention. You could relax and discontinue all the above medications. Iron supplementation is advisable if your hemoglobin is low and calcium is recommended after the 5th month of pregnancy for fetal bones growth. Hope this helps. Regards. </s>
