Pregnidoxin OD Tablet

Pregnidoxin OD Tablet – Doxylamine 20 mg + Pyridoxine 20 mg

Pregnidoxin OD Tablet from Dr Reddy’s combines Doxylamine 20 mg with Pyridoxine (Vitamin B6) 20 mg in a delayed-release tablet for nausea and vomiting of pregnancy. This pairing is the internationally recommended first-line drug treatment for morning sickness, with the longest safety record in pregnancy of any anti-nausea option. Doxylamine is an antihistamine that blocks the vomiting reflex; pyridoxine independently reduces nausea. The OD format releases overnight so the medicine is working by the time morning symptoms peak. Strip of 15 tablets. Prescription required.
