accupressure wrist bands (personally, I think sea bands fit most women poorly), ginger root capsules, ginger ale or ginger syrup, cocacola, apricot nectar, chamomile or peppermint tea, B6 po 25-50mg bid-tid, B6 100mg iv, B6 + unisom = Bendectin, reglan, zofran po or iv (the HMOs *hate* this because it is so expensive), home iv therapy, Emetrol, lemon drops (the really sour ones),

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
