Question:
I have been on diclectin since about 8 weeks into my pregnancy. I am now 28 weeks along and have been unable to stop taking the prescription due to reoccuring vomiting. I have just failed my gestational diabetes test and am wondering if the diclectin could possibly be effecting my blood gloucose levels?
Answer:
For most women, NVP does subside by the end of the first trimester. However, for a number of women
it can continue throughout the pregnancy, even up to the time of delivery. Diclectin has been shown safe when taken as directed, any time in pregnancy.
