For Nausea/Vomiting of Pregnancy "This medicine has honestly worked wonders for me. My morning sickness was so bad that it was through the whole day. I did read reviews prior to buying it, and a lot of people stated it makes you very sleepy. This is true. So, I decided to only take one pill at night before bed, and since it's an extended-release tablet, it has helped with my sickness all the way up till the evening of the next day. It does knock me out for the night, and I don't recommend taking it during the day if you work or have things to do. But it really does help with the sickness! I didn't have an appetite at all and barely could even drink anything...NOW I'm able to tolerate food and drink more. I don't have as much of an appetite like before being pregnant but am still able to eat a fair amount. If you're thinking and debating about the medicine, just do it, it seriously does help if you take it continuously!"

For Nausea/Vomiting of Pregnancy "Bonjesta has been an absolute miracle lifesaver for me. This is my 5th pregnancy with horrible morning sickness 24/7. Diclegis didn't work, Unisom barely worked, and I used to take Zofran daily to function. I had to pay out of pocket for this, and it has saved me. I am still nauseous, but I can eat, drive, and function, and no more throwing up! I was sleepy for the first few days, and it takes about a week to really work, but now it's AMAZING. Highly recommend, and it's super safe!"

For Nausea/Vomiting of Pregnancy "I was started on Bonjesta early in my pregnancy to prevent all-day nausea and vomiting. This medication was extremely effective for me. I didn't get dizzy or sleepy. I wasn't gaining any weight because of extreme vomiting until I started this med."

For Nausea/Vomiting of Pregnancy "I wanted to feel better with Bonjesta. My doctor prescribed it at 7 weeks, and I have taken it twice a day, but I still throw up twice a day, and I'm almost at 14 weeks. This also makes you extremely tired and sleepy."

For Nausea/Vomiting of Pregnancy "This medication did not work for me at all. I never got relief from nausea and actually threw up twice while on it. I stopped taking it, and the next morning I actually woke up feeling okay. Started a new medication (Zofran), so we'll see if it works. The Bonjesta made me sleepy, especially when taking one at night and one in the AM, but it never helped the nausea!"

For Nausea/Vomiting of Pregnancy "I am 35, and this is my first pregnancy. My 24/7 nausea with occasional vomiting hit me like a steamroller at 7 weeks. I was taking the over-the-counter Unisom PM at night and B6 supplements with food during the day, I noticed very little difference. At 9 weeks, I started Bonjesta, prescribed by my midwife. She did warn it could be costly, I was/am lucky, and my insurance covered all of the cost, except for a $40 copay, so it was an easy decision for me to try it. I took my first dose at night and then in the morning, and I remember going to work and feeling for the first time like I could function and get through this. It does make you very sleepy! I took two pills a day weeks 9-18 and now am taking one pill at night and adding the over-the-counter B6 supplements during the day with food. I still am careful and vigilant, but I feel so much better on it."
