vomiting caused by pregnancy. Decreasing nausea and vomiting may improve
your health and nutrition during pregnancy. Doxylamine Succinate and
Pyridoxine Hydrochloride tablets have not been studied in women with

Doxylamine is an antihistamine that is thought to work by affecting certain natural
substances (acetylcholine, serotonin) in your body or by acting directly on certain
parts of the brain. Pyridoxine is a B vitamin that is important for good health. Most
people get enough pyridoxine in their diet, but certain health conditions (such as
pregnancy, poor diet, alcoholism) can result in a lack of this vitamin.
This medicine is also used for short-term management of insomnia, particularly
in individuals who have difficulty falling asleep.
