Metoclopramide, a drug approved in the U.S. for nausea, vomiting and heartburn, poses no significant risks for the fetus, according to a new study. “Metoclopramide is the drug of choice in Europe and Israel for “morning sickness-like” symptoms of nausea and vomiting, which are common in pregnant women,” according to researchers. “In the U.S. however, it is only used in the most severe cases, as it is an “off-label” use for nausea and vomiting during pregnancy.”
