Dale,
The max of B6 in one day is 150mgs. The optimum way of taking the B6 is in 25-50mg doses spread out throughout the day. Get a pill splitter and she can take a 1/2 of a 50mg pill if you want to go that small, but she could take 50mgs three times a day w/o a problem. There is a post at the top of the First Trimester Forum all about B6/Unisom/Zofran.
Ok, what is their reasoning for not giving her any more Zofran? Many women are on Zofran throughout their pg. Phenergan allergy is common.
There will be time to decide if you want to suffer HG again a 2nd time after the pregnancy is over and you are holding a baby in your arms. You honestly don't have to decide in the midst of HG. One good thing my husband and I have learned from two bouts of HG, an adoption and an ectopic miscarriage is that the two of us can get through anything together, afterall, we survived HG.
Keep us updated,
