Use of antiemetics in early pregnancy 2012–2022: A cross‐sectional study

We found a low but rising prevalence of antiemetic use in early pregnancy, and the treatment often deviated from clinical guidelines. Antiemetic users differed from non-users on several maternal characteristics, with a higher proportion reporting somatic and psychiatric disorders, as well as poorer mental well-being, despite antiemetic treatment.

Abstract

We found a low but rising prevalence of antiemetic use in early pregnancy, and the treatment often deviated from clinical guidelines. Antiemetic users differed from non-users on several maternal characteristics, with a higher proportion reporting somatic and psychiatric disorders, as well as poorer mental well-being, despite antiemetic treatment.
