General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

It is "unisom" and it is a brand name of Doxylamine. It is not a lethal drug and half a tablet does not cause much harm to your baby. You can watch for symptoms like excessive sleepiness and seizure.

As of now, no definite treatment is required.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
