BASIC INFORMATION


"For Informational Use Only"
For more detailed information contact your health care provider
about options that may be available for your specific situation.


Nausea during pregnancy can be miserable, to say the least. It can be discouraging to have to adapt to one more thing during this time, as if you do not have enough to deal with while pregnant. Some women experience a slight nausea or only feel ill or queasy in the morning, but for some women it lasts all day and is even troublesome at night. Discomfort usually eases off by the third or fourth month, but this is not always the case. Homeopathic remedies can be very helpful to a woman with morning sickness and are safe to take during pregnancy.

Use either a 12C or 30C potency (strength, or potency recommended or available) of the indicated remedy a few times per day, as needed. If a few doses bring no relief, try a different remedy.




ARSENICUM ALBUM:

Arsenicum Album (Arsenous Acid) - This is a homeopathic remedy that may be used for calming upset stomach, warding off diarrhea symptoms and vomiting, often accompanied by great thirst, restlessness and sciatica. Worse after midnight. May be used for cramps, gastroenteritis, hay fever, chills, dermatitis, inflammation of all degrees of severity in all organs, serious infections, diseases of attrition, benign and malignant proliferation of tissue and emotional discord or upset. Relieves any restlessness symptoms and therefore much better suited to a busy lifestyle. For homeopathic use, arsenicum album is prepared by separating arsenic from iron (as in arsenopyrite), cobalt, or nickel by baking at high temperatures. The powder is then ground and diluted with lactose. In the final dilution, there are normally no atoms of arsenic left. The final product is sold as tinctures (liquid), tablets, pellets, or powder. Adults dissolve 4 tablets under tongue 4 times daily. Children 2 tablets. In acute cases take 4 tablets every hour until relieved, or as directed by a health care practitioner. As with any drug, if you are pregnant or nursing a baby, seek the advice of a health professional before using this product.

ASARUM:

Asarum - This remedy is indicated when a woman feels very ill, with constant nausea and retching. She is extremely sensitive to everything, especially noise, which can aggravate the nauseous feelings. She feels best when lying down and resting. Cool drinks or food may help, but it is hard for her to even think of eating.

Colchicum - Horrible nausea that is worse from the sight and smell of food (especially cooking food, eggs or fish) often indicates this remedy. The woman retches and vomits even at the thought of food, and has a sore and bloated feeling in the abdomen. Her nausea is also worse from even the slightest movement. She has trouble eating anything, although she often craves things, when she tries to eat them they make her sick. She is likely to feel ill from many smells that others do not even notice.

Ipecacuanha - This remedy is indicated for intense and constant, persistent nausea that is felt all day (not only in the morning) with retching, belching, and excessive salivation. The woman may feel worse from lying down, but also worse from motion. Even after the woman vomits, she remains nauseous.

KREOSOTUM:

Kreosotum - When this remedy is indicated, the woman may salivate so much that she constantly swallows it, becoming nauseous. She may also vomit up food that looks undigested, several hours after eating.

Kreosotum, or creosote, is made from distilled beechwood tar. It has been used for centuries as a wood preservative and was first used for medical purposes in the 1800s. It is currently used to treat a wide range of conditions, such as bed-wetting, bleeding between menstrual cycles, ailments affecting the mucus membranes, and nausea due to pregnancy. To make a solution of kreosotum, creosote is typically dissolved in alcohol and distilled water. Next, it is strained through a filter until the liquid is extracted, making a mother tincture. One drop of the mother tincture can be diluted further in a mixture of alcohol and distilled water. This new, diluted mixture is then vigorously shaken. It can be diluted further, if necessary, or added to tablets, granules, or powder, and stored. People who practice homeopathic medicine claim that kreosotum works best on certain types of patients. For example, they claim that people who are consistently in a temperamental state are ideal for the drug. It is also believed to work well on people who are forgetful, restless at night, and irritable. Other characteristics that are common among patients who use kreosotum include a penchant to live in the past and experience repeated dreams that are sexual in nature. It is often used to treat candidiasis as well. Candidiasis is a fungal infection that usually affects the vagina. Kreosotum is usually recommended for people who have an offensive, foul-smelling discharge coming from the vaginal area. The odor is usually accompanied with soreness and burning, especially when urinating. It can also be used to treat discharge and bleeding from the cervix and uterus. Some homeopathic medicine practitioners recommend kreosotum if a woman has bleeding on the days between her menstrual cycles. It is sometimes recommended for women who have heavy menstrual cycles or an odiferous flow that is accompanied by a burning sensation. There are also claims that it can be used to treat nausea due to pregnancy. Bed-wetting, or nocturnal enuresis, is a common problem, especially in young children. By the time many children are three years old, they have the ability to control their bladders. Many children still have problems controlling their bladder at night, however, even when they are six or seven years old. Kreosotum is often recommended to help a child who wets the bed when in a deep sleep. Usually a practitioner will recommend the child ingests the mixture before bed for two weeks in the hopes of having a dry bed in the morning. Although side effects are rare, most people should consult a professional before using kreosotum. A professional opinion is especially important for children, women who are pregnant, and women who are breastfeeding. If any concerns arise, it is best to stop using the drug.

NUX VOMICA:

Nux Vomica - Nausea, especially in the morning and after eating, may respond to this remedy, especially if the woman is irritable, impatient, and chilly. She may retch a lot and have the urge to vomit, often without success. Her stomach feels sensitive to pressure and crampy, and she may be constipated. If necessary, Nux Vomica can be taken in alternation with Ipecacuanha.

Nux Vomica(Poison Nut from the Strychnine tree) is a homeopathic remedy to treat heartburn from coffee, alcohol or rich foods, as well as nausea and vomiting due to overeating and drinking. Used for gastric and liver disorders occasioned by high living, overeating or excessive medication. Hangover medicine, Nux Vomica also can help break the habit of using laxatives. May also help constipation, flatulence, indigestion, motion sickness, backaches, fevers, and headaches. Adults dissolve 4 tablets under tongue 4 times a day, children 2 tablets as above. In acute cases take 4 tablets every hour until relieved, or as directed by a licensed practitioner.

Pulsatilla - This remedy can be helpful if nausea is worse in the afternoon and evening (often in the morning, as well). The woman is not very thirsty, although she may feel better from drinking something cool. She can crave many different foods, but feels sick from many things (including foods she craves). Creamy foods or desserts may be appealing, but can cause discomfort and burping or bring on vomiting. A woman who needs this remedy usually is affectionate, insecure, and weepy, wanting a lot of attention and comforting.

SEPIA:

Sepia (Inky Juice of Cuttlefish, Sepia Succus, Sepia Officinalis)- Gnawing, intermittent nausea with an empty feeling in the stomach suggests a need for this remedy. It is especially indicated for a woman who is feeling irritable, sad, worn out, and indifferent to her family. She may be depressed and may regret the pregnancy. She feels worst in the morning before she eats, but is not improved by eating and may vomit afterward. Nausea can be worse when she is lying on her side. She is sensitive to odors and odors of any kind may aggravate the symptoms. Food often tastes too salty. She may lose her taste for many foods, but may still crave vinegar and sour foods.

VOMITING OF PREGNANCY #317:

For morning or anytime nausea strikes, vomiting, irritability, diarrhea and indigestion.

Whether it comes in the morning or anytime you see food, this remedy may be your answer to a safe well nourished pregnancy. The little known remedy called Cerium, has a very singular purpose in homeopathy - vomiting of half digested food especially during pregnancy. Ipecac helps nausea that wants to vomit but cannot, or nausea that remains after vomiting. Nux vomica is here for the pregnancy plagued by almost constant nausea. Its nausea is worse in the morning, after eating or with tobacco, which may or may not cause vomiting. Sepia helps many pregnancy symptoms including nausea with a gnawing pain relieved only temporarily by eating and aggravated by morning, milk and pork. Tabacum's violent sour nausea and vomiting feel better in fresh air (though that may worsen dizziness), and worse for morning, travel or fasting. Miranda Castro's pregnancy book, lists all these ingredients (except Cerium) as safe for morning sickness, and Cerium is referred to in several Materia Medica. Though homeopathy is very safe, drugs are drugs, so please seek professional advice during pregnancy.

Homeopathic Ingredients: Cerium oxalicum, Ipecac, Nux vomica, Sepia, Tabacum

    HOMEOPATHY DOSAGE DIRECTIONS

    Select the remedy that most closely matches the symptoms. In conditions where self-treatment is appropriate, unless otherwise directed by a midwife or health care provider, a lower potency (6X, 6C, 12X, 12C, 30X, or 30C) should be used. In addition, instructions for use are usually printed on the label.

    Many homeopathic practitioners suggest that remedies be used as follows: Take one dose and wait for a response. If improvement is seen, continue to wait and let the remedy work. If improvement lags significantly or has clearly stopped, another dose may be taken. The frequency of dosage varies with the condition and the individual. Sometimes a dose may be required several times an hour; other times a dose may be indicated several times a day; and in some situations, one dose per day (or less) can be sufficient.

    If no response is seen within a reasonable amount of time, select a different remedy.

    DIET

  • Place small, quick energy snacks, such as soda or whole-grain crackers, whole wheat toast near your bed and eat some before arising.


  • Eat a small snack at bedtime and when you get up to go to the bathroom during the night.


  • Eat small, frequent meals and snacks on whole-grain crackers with nut butters (but not peanut butter) or cheese. Avoid large meals. Snacks should consist of high-protein foods with nut butters on apple wedges or celery; nuts; popcorn with nutritional yeast; brown rice with miso; bread & tahini; a quarter sandwich; cheese and crackers; milk; cottage cheese; yogurt sprinkled with granola; turkey or chicken slices. Avoid foods that are high in fat and salt and low in nutrition.


  • Do not go without food or drink because of the nausea. Sip on fluids throughout the day to keep hydrated.

Alfalfa is one of the best natural sources of vitamin K and a rich source of vitamins A, B Complex, C, D, and E, biotin, carotenes, calcium, phosphorus, choline, inositol, PABA, actacosonal, trace minerals including iron, potassium, magnesium, phosphorus, sodium, chlorophyll, and many other nutrients. Alfalfa is an excellent tonic for the whole body and it may help build iron levels in blood. It contains natural fluoride that may help rebuild tooth decay and strengthen tooth enamel.

The resultant improved assimilation is helpful for gastritis, indigestion, morning sickeness, and nausea. Alfalfa tea is an appetite stimulator. Vitamin K helps blood to clot by moving calcium into proteins that form a microscopic net to capture red blood cells. Vitamin K likewise helps bones to knit by working with vitamin D and glutamic acid to activate osteocalcin. The combination of these three nutrients is essential to building good bone. Your body can not use calcium without it. Alfalfa not only helps keep calcium in bones, it helps keep calcium out of the linings of arteries.

    RED RASPBERRY LEAF PRODUCTS

    Raspberry Leaf tea has been used for centuries as a folk medicine to treat canker sores, cold sores, and gingivitis in persons of all ages and anemia, leg cramps, diarrhea, and morning sickness in pregnant women, and as a uterine relaxant. Commentators frequently state that recent scientific research found no benefit in raspberry tea for expectant mothers, but this is not correct. The study published in the Journal of Midwifery and Women's Health in 2001 found that women who drank raspberry leaf tea had shorter labor, and fewer of their babies were delivered by forceps. The other study, published in the Australian College of Midwives Journal, cited in The Natural Pharmacist as saying there was "no" benefit to the herb for pregnant women, actually stated:"The findings also suggest ingestion of the drug might decrease the likelihood of pre and post-term gestation. An unexpected finding in this study seems to indicate that women who ingest raspberry leaf might be less likely to receive an artificial rupture of their membranes, or require a caesarean section, forceps or vacuum birth than the women in the control group." In other words, scientific studies show that drinking raspberry tea actually is beneficial during pregnancy.

    Detox Kit combines three carefully formulated remedies to relieve symptoms of illness caused by an unhealthy lifestyle (substance abuse, unbalanced diet, etc.) and/or exposure to environmental toxins (pollution, pesticides, allergens, etc.). The Detox Kit works by stimulating the body’s natural processes of elimination to cleanse itself of these poisons, which can build up over time and negatively affect the immune system. Combines three carefully formulated remedies to relieve symptoms of illness caused by an unhealthy lifestyle and/or exposure to environmental toxins. Lymphomyosot stimulates the lymphatic system, Nux vomica-Homaccord stimulates the gastrointestinal pathway and liver function, Berberi-Homaccord stimulates the kidney and gallbladder systems. Add the recommended dosage to your water and consume throughout the day. Three 50 ml bottles per kit. 10 drops of each preparation 3 times daily.
