Hello
Thanks for the query
Morgidox is Doxycyclline and it s known to cause nausea. Here are my suggestions to you
1. Please do not stop taking Morgidox
2. Tab Pantoprazole with Domperidone twice daily for 7 days, followed by once daily until the completion of treatment will help you overcome nausea
3. Eat on time, do not skip meals
4. Avoid caffeine, alcohol, milk and milk products
5. Stay up in sitting position atleast 1 hour after dinner
I hope I was of help
Regards
