Nausea with/without vomiting
Normal saline is a cornerstone of intravenous solutions commonly used in the clinical setting in the management and treatment of dehydration, metabolic alkalosis in the presence of fluid loss, and mild sodium depletion.
Normal saline functions to expand intravascular volume without disturbing ion concentration or causing large fluid shifts between intracellular, intravascular, and interstitial spaces.
B-complex supplementation replaces B vitamins lost.
B12 provides increased energy.
Sleep-inducing anti-nausea promethazine provides effective nausea relief while inducing sedation.
Ondansetron provides quick, anti-nausea relief in as little as 30 minutes.
