Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
It is true that it is preferred not to use any medicine during the first trimester in a normal pregnancy. However, to tackle some of the effects like nausea, vomiting, dizziness, gastritis, etc., which are troublesome, limited safer medicines are prescribed. Vitozyme is an enzyme and has not shown any adverse effects in pregnancy. The effects of vertin have not been documented so, I would ask you to consult your doctor before taking. Vomikind also is considered safe in pregnancy. In addition, avoidance of stress, healthy diet, and adequate rest are needed. Frequent small bland meals help to avoid indigestion.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Shanti Vennam
