What is Bonjesta?

Bonjesta is a prescription medicine used to treat nausea and vomiting during pregnancy (commonly referred to as morning sickness). It contains two active ingredients: doxylamine and pyridoxine (vitamin B6). [1]

How does Bonjesta work?

Bonjesta combines:
- Doxylamine, an antihistamine that helps reduce nausea.
- Pyridoxine (vitamin B6), which is involved in pathways that affect nausea and vomiting. [1]

How is Bonjesta typically taken?

Bonjesta is taken by mouth as a prescription medicine for pregnancy-related nausea and vomiting. The exact dosing schedule depends on the prescriber’s instructions and the patient’s response. [1]

What should patients know about safety in pregnancy?

As with any prescription therapy during pregnancy, patients should discuss benefits and risks with their clinician. Side effects can occur with doxylamine (an antihistamine), so clinicians often consider sedation and other tolerability issues when recommending treatment. [1]
