I have been prescribed 2 5mg Norethisterone tablets 3 times. I was given the tablets to stop a period which I'd had for a fortnight which involved really heavy 'flooding'. This has resulted in my ankles swelling for which my Gp has given me water tablets. I am now feeling sick everyday. Is 6 tablets a day the normal dose? I was given enough tablets for about a month.

This is a hormone that is often used to prevent pregnancy, or help regulate them, when someone experiences irregular bleeding.

The NIH lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, weight changes, and PMS-like symptoms.

Linda, it is hard to say, most medications can cause nausea, and vomiting as side effects. What water tablet did the doctor prescribe for you?
