    I was prescribed Maxalon as well Ally and would you believe my luck.... it didn't do a thing!! If it had worked though I would have taken it every day - I was so so sick and still needed to work. I hope you're feeling better soon hun!

    I have had three babies and suffered from severe m/s each time until 20-24 weeks. It was just awful. I tried everything, and I mean everything. I felt sick from the moment I woke up to the moment I would mercifully fall asleep. To me, it felt like I had gastro for 4-5 months. I tried all the natural remedies (had bruises on my wrists from those damn sea bands - I know they work for some, but not for me!), I tried acupunture (maybe it took a very small about of the m/s away), ginger/b6 (couldn't really tell the difference), and then my Dr. prescribed Zofran. I was also a little worried about how it may affect my baby (I was assured by my Dr. that it was perfectly safe). I only took a lose dose and it only helped a small about (still felt sick, just didn't vomit as much). I've heard Maxolon is similar to Zofran in that it doesn't really take the sick feeling away, it just reduces the vomit. The only time I felt "ok" was for the 5-10 min after I vomited, so after a few weeks on Zofran I gave it up.

    Hope you are feeling better soon because I can remember how awful it was. Mary
