"I took two of these pills and went into a full-on rage for 6 straight hours. I couldn't control my emotions, my eyelids kept twitching. I felt like I was pumped full of antidepressants and was in a cross-eyed fog. My nausea was definitely gone, considering all the new horrible feelings I was enduring. The nurse said to 'give it time.' I have a two-year-old-I don't have a week or even a few days to be fueled by hatred and impatience. This medicine is horrible. Don't take it unless you want to experience extreme mood swings and irritability."

"Worked decently. My baby was born with Down syndrome and cancer and many other issues. I've had 2 perfect pregnancies before this. I can't necessarily blame the meds, but the only thing different I did during my pregnancy."

"I was ridiculously sick starting around 5-6 weeks pregnant. At 8 weeks, my new OB-GYN prescribed Diclegis. I started taking 2 pills at night, and I definitely felt better the next day-barely any nausea, so it definitely served its purpose. However, when I returned for the 10-week ultrasound, my doctor informed me that there was no heartbeat and the baby stopped growing around 8 weeks. The heartbeat was strong, 140 at 7 weeks, and this was a totally devastating blow-usually, once there is a heartbeat above 120, there is a very small chance of miscarriage-about 3-4%. I can’t help but think that maybe it is not a total coincidence that the baby stopped growing and died right around the same time I started taking Diclegis. If I am lucky to get pregnant again, I will never touch this drug :("

"Best, best, drug ever. First time in my life to feel this relief while pregnant. No more N/V, no more morning sickness. Just to feel this relief is a blessing. Thanks to Diclegis."

"This sent me to the hospital! I was on my second pregnancy, and my OB prescribed Diclegis for my morning sickness, which feels more like all-day sickness. I decided to wait till nighttime to take 1 instead of 2 because it said it caused drowsiness, and my toddler was 1 at the time. So I woke up at 4 am feeling extremely flushed, I could feel my blood pumping through my body! My heart was racing out of control. I honestly thought I was having a heart attack! I called 911, and the paramedics said my HR was at 120. Once I got to the ER, I started to hyperventilate to the point where I couldn't walk, talk, and my extremities became stiff. OB laughed at me, didn't believe any of my side effects, fired him, and never took it again! Don't recommend it!"
