i took Phenogren while pregnant and in the hospital for vomiting. i ended up with a toxic build up in my body which caused muscle spasms and that caused me to lose my baby at 23 weeks. Why do doctors keep prescribing Phenogren when there are high risks to pregnant women?

Yes, the tablet with the GG 225 marking contains 25mgs of Promethazine, which is an antihistamine that's commonly used to prevent nausea and vomiting.

You can learn more Promethazine details here.

And A. M. I am very sorry for your loss and what you've been through, that's so tragic.

However, it is actually not known to be extremely risk during pregnancy, no studies have proven that it is. The best thing I can suggest to anyone that's prescribed anything during pregnancy is to read everything they can about it and discuss it with their doctor, so they can make the most informed decision possible, before they start taking it.

Has anyone else experience ill effects taking this during pregnancy?

Did you report this to the FDA?
